What is perhaps surprising is that most people don’t think of Salesforce as a programming company focused on software application developers. Salesforce Lightning PlatformNews this month sees Salesforce bring forward Lightning Web Components, a programming model for JavaScript developers to code on the Lightning Platform. Lightning Web Components is a standards-based programming model that gives developers the freedom to use the tools they most prefer to build components i.e. “With Lightning Web Components, we are giving developers a new, sophisticated, standards-driven framework for building enterprise apps on Lightning. By combining Lightning Web Components with other Lightning Platform solutions including pro-code tools like Salesforce DX, low-code solutions like Lightning App Builder and Lightning Flow and enterprise services like Salesforce IoT and Salesforce Einstein, companies can build large-scale apps, extend the functionality of CRM and also build departmental-specific apps for all aspects of the business.
