Chapter 12. Making Components Available for Salesforce Mobile and Communities

Salesforce offers a mobile application on the Apple App Store for iOS and Google Play for Android devices that provides most of the functionality that a web application provides. Lightning Components can be used in the Salesforce mobile application in various places, such as Global Actions, Object-Specific Actions, and navigation. In this chapter, we will explore how you can use Lightning Components to customize the Salesforce mobile application.

Salesforce communities provide the ability to create customer-facing portals and online discussion forums. Salesforce communities leverage Community Builder and Lightning Components, and they theme layouts to provide a customized experience. We will uncover some of these in this chapter.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • Using Lightning Components in a Salesforce mobile application
