Program Overview: What is Salesforce Development (Apex and Lightning)?
Salesforce Development (Apex & Lightning) is Edstellar's instructor-led program for developers building custom solutions on the Salesforce platform. Participants master platform foundations, Apex programming, Lightning Web Components, integrations and data management, and testing and deployment. It serves teams that have outgrown point-and-click and need real code.
Training is code-heavy across 24 hours in a Salesforce developer org. Participants write Apex triggers and classes, build Lightning Web Components, integrate external systems, and deploy through proper pipelines in guided labs. Instructors review code with direct feedback on governor limits, bulkification, and design. The program closes with a 5-hour capstone: a complete Salesforce app build.
Clicks-only teams hit a wall: Flows that can't scale, workarounds that break, and technical debt that no admin can unwind. This program teaches developers to write platform code the right way, respecting governor limits and security from the first line. Every lab runs in a real org, so the code patterns are production-ready.
The capstone is a complete custom application: Apex backend, Lightning Web Components frontend, integrations, and tests, deployed and demoed. Participants return with a working app in their portfolio and the development discipline to extend Salesforce properly.
Across six modules, your team moves from platform foundations to a capstone app build. They write bulkified Apex triggers, create Lightning Web Components, integrate with external APIs, and ship changes through Salesforce DX pipelines. The program ends with a deployed app your team presents, proving they can deliver Salesforce solutions independently.

Plan
Platform foundations progress to Apex, Lightning Web Components, integrations, and data handling before testing, debugging, and an end-to-end application build.
- Step 03
Align
Salesforce development expertise is aligned with coding readiness and scratch-org practice, allowing time for governor-limit reasoning and component-level implementation feedback.
- Step 04
Customize
Sample business processes and record collections shape trigger and interface exercises without introducing customer data or changing an operational Salesforce org.
