Discover how to design and customise pro-code applications on the Salesforce Platform using Apex, Visualforce markup, and the Lightning Component Framework. In this 5-days programme, learn how to develop and deploy custom pro-code solutions by writing and testing custom logic, and by customising the user interface with basic Visualforce pages and Lightning Web Components. Examine how Apex interacts with no-code customisations on the platform, gain a basic understanding of no-code automation tools, and explore the nuances of working on a multi-tenant platform to build cohesive pro-code solutions that meet business demands.
Key Takeaways
At the end of this programme, you will be able to:
Design custom pro-code solutions that effectively leverage no-code customisations
Write basic Lightning Web Components and basic Visualforce markup and code to customise the UI
Use Apex triggers and classes to write business logic customisations that use Salesforce Object Query Language (SOQL), Salesforce Object Search Language (SOSL), and Data Manipulation Language (DML)
Test Apex by using the built-in testing framework
Explain how trigger code works in accordance with the Salesforce Order of Execution
Understand key fundamentals of designing programs on a multi-tenant platform
Use Visual Studio Code, the Salesforce Extension Pack, and Salesforce Command Line Interface (CLI) to learn about modern tools for developing on the Salesforce Platform
Who Should Attend
Please refer to the job roles section.
ICT&SS Professionals who are keen to learn how to write pro-code customisations for business logic and user interface (UI) layers using Apex, Visualforce, and Lightning Web Components. You will ideally have a solid understanding of core object-oriented programming concepts and experience building no-code solutions on the Salesforce Platform, although this is not required. This is also a great programme for Developers looking to earn their Salesforce Platform Developer I credential.
