I am proud to announce that yesterday my new course for Pluralsight titled, “Customizing Salesforce with Lightning Components: Getting Started” was released.

Here is the long description:

In this course, you’ll learn how to easily customize Salesforce with the new Lightning Component framework, which includes all the tools and technologies needed to build responsive and efficient components for any device. First, you’ll cover the basics of building Lightning Components, and how to work with data using built-in components such as the Lightning Data Service. Next, you’ll explore Lightning alternatives for the traditional JavaScript buttons that so many orgs have now. Finally, you’ll learn about the most efficient way to migrate from Visualforce to Lightning. Although, many things have changed during the evolution of the Lightning Component framework, don’t worry, you’ll learn what you need to know to get up to “lightning” speed. By the end of this course, you’ll be well on your journey towards customizing your org with Lightning components.

Specific topics I cover are:

• Base Lightning Components
• Lightning Data Service
• Extending SLDS
• Lightning Actions
• Migrating from Visualforce to Lightning

Hope you like the course. I worked really hard on it, dedicating every weekend for the past 7 months. I wanted each module to be special and I hope my efforts show.

If you see the course, I would be really interested in your feedback – good or negative. All of it helps me to create better courses.
