Low-code platforms allow users to focus on business logic to create solutions without getting trapped in programming complexities.

Great book for admins wanting to expand knowledge, those wanting to learn salesforce, or anyone wanting more than Trailhead help them learn!This book not only gives you a great and thorough introduction to Salesforce, but it also has some great hands on exercises covering everything from reports to custom settings, to flows, oh my! That's just the start, if you are looking for training on your own, digging deeper than the trails and going to the next level, this book is just that! I can easily seen the vast majority getting confidence from this book in skills they have wanted to grow and work on, as well as learn a few new tips and tricks about the platform along the way!A must have for admins, archs, trainers, developers, and anyone curious about Salesforce as a platform!

I received a copy of this book from the publisher, in exchange for a review.The author is a well-known Salesforce Architect, and this book demonstrates that his reputation for teaching is well deserved. It is written clearly and topics are explained with good examples. The friendly tone and personal comments often make it seem more like a conversation than a textbook. The “Further reading” and “Blaze your trail” tips offer the curious reader a glimpse of what else is available, and are particularly useful.The book is organized so that a Salesforce beginner can work through it a chapter at a time, learning all the while, and end up with detailed knowledge of the declarative aspects of the platform. Administrators or developers wanting to learn or refresh a particular skill will find this book useful as well.I highly recommend this book, and wish it had been available when I was new to Salesforce.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team. 

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
