The m-Power Demo Video Series: field service management

The m-Power Demo Video Series takes you on a deep dive into m-Power's build process, walking you through a start-to-finish development project. In every video, we tackle a project that would require days or weeks of manual coding, and complete the whole thing in about two hours.

In this project, we build a field service management system for dispatching technicians. It includes a job listing application, custom forms with validation and signature capture, row-level security, scheduled tasks that email invoices, and a live map of customer jobs. Each step is explained as we go.
