# Code Components for Model-Driven Apps

Power Apps component framework gives developers the ability to extend the visualizations in model-driven apps. Professional developers can create, debug, import, and add code components to model-driven apps using [Microsoft Power Platform CLI](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/component-framework/get-powerapps-cli).

## Component Usage

You can add code components to:
- Columns
- Grids
- Sub grids

in model-driven apps.

> **Important**: Power Apps component framework is enabled for model-driven apps by default. See [Code components for canvas apps](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/component-framework/component-framework-for-canvas-apps) to learn how to enable Power Apps component framework for canvas apps.

## Implementing Code Components

Before you start creating code components, make sure that you have installed all the [prerequisites](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/component-framework/create-custom-controls-using-pcf#prerequisites) that are required to develop components using Power Apps component framework.

The [create your first code component](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/component-framework/implementing-controls-using-typescript) article demonstrates the step-by-step process to create code components.

## Add Code Components to Model-Driven Apps

To add code components to a column or a table in model-driven apps, see [Add code components to model-driven apps](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/component-framework/add-custom-controls-to-a-field-or-entity).

### Examples

**Linear Slider Control:**

**Data Set Grid Component:**

## Update Existing Code Components

Whenever you update the code components and want to see the changes in runtime, you need to bump the version property in the manifest file. 

**Best Practice**: It is recommended to always bump the version of the component whenever you make changes.
