Adding custom JavaScript as a separate file into a Power Page

Adding custom JavaScript as a separate file into a Power Page is a great way to keep your code organized. This allows you to easily maintain, update, and debug your code. The process for adding custom JavaScript to a Power Page is fairly straightforward.

First, create a new folder in the Power Pages editor and name it "JavaScript". Then, create a new JavaScript file in this folder and name it "main.js". This will be the main JavaScript file that will contain all of your custom code.

Next, open the Power Page editor and add a new HTML block. In the HTML block, add a script tag and define the source as the JavaScript file you just created. This will tell Power Pages to include the custom JavaScript file in the page.

Finally, you can add your custom JavaScript code to the JavaScript file you created. Make sure to use proper coding conventions and avoid using global variables. Once you are done, save the file and the changes will be reflected in the Power Page.

Adding custom JavaScript as a separate file in Power Pages can be a great way to keep your code organized and easily maintainable. It also helps to ensure that your code is optimized for performance.
