1 like627 views
The document discusses building a Salesforce Lightning app for a product manager named Astro within tight deadlines and with an inexperienced team. It recommends: 1) Dividing the app into reusable components through code collaboration and pair programming. 2) Crowdsourcing ideas through code sharing on GitHub to draw on diverse skills. 3) Using interactive code playgrounds for debugging Lightning apps.

- 10. Code Playgrounds • Code playgrounds allow you to share and execute snippets of code. • They are commonly used by web developers during development roadblocks. • Salesforce developers need a code playground for debugging Lightning apps.
- 11. Salesforce Lightning Components • Lightning components stem from the open source Aura UI framework. • Lightning components run on Apex, but Aura components run on Java. • Aura apps can be compiled and run outside of Salesforce.
- 12. DigitalOcean • Docker packages apps into standardized containers. • Dokku allows you to create a private, mini- Heroku through Docker. MEAN.JS Docker Dokku • DigitalOcean offers simple, inexpensive cloud hosting. Spark • MEAN.JS is a full-stack JavaScript solution for building web apps that use MongoDB, Express, AngularJS, and Node.js.
