Salesforce Coding Introduction for Citizen Developers

(0) Introduction

I’ve been working with Salesforce for over 9 years now and I’ve been a RAD Women coach for almost 4 years. Learning and teaching Salesforce programming for the past years I did notice with some people they make better connection to the programming when it is explained with the tools they use on a daily basis. So I decided to create a series of blog posts that will explain the programming concepts with the tools that are used in Salesforce. I hope you will find this series useful and will help you to understand the programming concepts better.

I am excited to announce my new blog post series, “Low Code to All Code,” which aims to introduce Salesforce coding to citizen developers. The title of the series is not to imply that low-code is a stepping stone to all-code, but rather to highlight the fact that Salesforce’s point-and-click tools can be used as a reference to learn how to code in Apex.

Each post in the series will cover a specific programming concept and provide real-world examples of how to use it within Salesforce. For example, our first post will focus on variables and data types in Apex. We will explain what variables are, how to declare them, and how to assign values to them and make relations to existing tool which citizen developers are utilizing on a daily basis.

As the series progresses, we will cover more complex topics such as batch processing and LWC components. We will use Salesforce’s point-and-click tools as a reference to illustrate how these programming concepts can be used to create custom solutions within the platform.

Ultimately, my goal is to provide citizen developers with a better understanding of Salesforce’s programming capabilities. I hope that this series will be a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning how to code in Salesforce.

So, join me on this journey as we explore the world of Salesforce coding together. Stay tuned for the first post, where we will introduce the concept of variables and data types in Apex.
