Aura Components
Aura Components is a UI framework developed by Salesforce for building dynamic, single-page applications on the Salesforce Lightning Platform. It uses a component-based architecture with a client-side controller, server-side controller, and markup to create reusable UI elements that can be embedded in Salesforce applications. The framework leverages JavaScript on the client side and Apex on the server side to handle data and business logic.
Developers should learn Aura Components when building custom applications on the Salesforce Lightning Platform, as it is the foundational framework for creating interactive user interfaces in Salesforce. It is particularly useful for developing custom Lightning apps, components for Salesforce communities, or extending Salesforce functionality with tailored UI elements. Use cases include building dashboards, forms, or complex workflows that integrate seamlessly with Salesforce data and services.
