Is this the right course for you?
This course introduces Aura component development for people working with Salesforce Lightning applications that already use Aura. The published modules cover fundamentals, Lightning Data Service, events and navigation. Work through the component model before combining several techniques in an existing application.
Before you start
You should be comfortable with basic HTML, JavaScript and Salesforce records. Use an org where you can create components and test changes independently. Aura remains relevant to maintaining existing applications; consider the requirements of your project when deciding between Aura and Lightning Web Components.
Put the lessons into practice
Build a small component that reads a record, responds to a user action and passes information through an event. Explain which work happens in the component and which belongs on the server. Test the result with realistic permissions and keep your example small enough to debug.
Use the syllabus below to choose your next lesson. The published sections include Fundamentals, Lightning Data Services(LDS), Events in Aura Components, Navigation, Miscellaneous. Pause as you go, reproduce the example, and check your result before continuing. This makes the lesson a practice session you can repeat, rather than a video you only watch once.
