Salesforce Lightning
Salesforce Lightning is a modern component-based framework and user experience platform for building applications on the Salesforce ecosystem. It includes Lightning Web Components (LWC) for web development, the Lightning App Builder for drag-and-drop customization, and tools for creating responsive, mobile-ready interfaces. It enables developers to build scalable, high-performance applications that integrate seamlessly with Salesforce data and services.
Developers should learn Salesforce Lightning when building custom applications, enhancing CRM functionality, or creating business solutions within the Salesforce environment. It's essential for roles involving Salesforce development, such as customizing sales, service, or marketing workflows, as it offers a modern, efficient way to extend Salesforce with reusable components and declarative tools. Use cases include developing customer portals, internal dashboards, and automated business processes that leverage Salesforce's data model and APIs.
