By: Enrico Murru

Overview of this book

Low-code platforms allow users to focus on business logic to create solutions without getting trapped in programming complexities. Thanks to its powerful features for designing, developing, and deploying apps without having to hand-code, Salesforce is at the forefront of the low-code development revolution. This book will guide you in building creative applications for solving your business problems using the declarative framework provided by Salesforce. You’ll start by learning how to design your business data model with custom objects, fields, formulas, and validation rules, all secured by the Salesforce security model. You’ll then explore tools such as Workflow, Process Builder, Lightning Flow, and Actions that will help you to automate your business processes with ease. This book also shows you how to use Lightning App Builder to build personalized UIs for your Salesforce applications, explains the value of creating community pages for your organization, and teaches you how to customize them with Experience Builder. Finally, you'll work with the sandbox model, deploy your solutions, and deliver an effective release management strategy. By the end of this Salesforce book, you’ll be ready to customize Salesforce CRM to meet your business requirements by creating unique solutions without writing a single line of code.

If you are an experienced developer with no Salesforce experience, if you are a technical or solution architect coming from CRM implementations based on other products, if you want to start your career in information technology but you don't have a degree in computer programming, if you are a Salesforce user and want to learn how Salesforce CRM works, if you are a Salesforce developer but lack some administration skills, or if simply you are planning to take your Salesforce Administrator or Salesforce Application Builder certifications, this book is right for you.

The only prerequisite is the desire to learn and get the most out of the Salesforce world.
