After 3 fantastic days, Virtual Camp Apr'19 has finished. An event with many high level speakers and a great diversity of topics. From Intelequia we feel very proud to have been part of it.

On this occasion, I had the opportunity to share the talk with Abe Santana and Mario Trueba about my favorite topic: PowerApps.

When using PowerApps, we get a fair amount of settings to change our text controls but sometimes, we need that little extra touch. One of those options is the font family. We get 14 font styles that are suitable for most design ideas.
