In this recipe, we will create one custom component. We develop Lightning Components in the built-in integrated development environment (IDE), the developer console. Also, we will see the basic and key techniques of Lightning component development.
We need a developer console. We have developed, tested, and debugged the apex logic, as well as the Visualforce pages with the built-in IDE. In the same developer console, we are going to develop the Lightning Components.
The Lightning Framework is a JavaScript-based user interface component framework. Component-based means components are reusable, such as in Visualforce. Lightning Framework, which is JavaScript-based, is case sensitive, unlike Visualforce Framework which is case insensitive. Consider the following example:
helloWorld HelloWorld
Here, helloWorld
, which has h
in lower case, and W
