Reasons Why Salesforce Developers Should Consider Lightning Web Components
Featured Image

With the ongoing use of Lightning Web Components (LWC) these days by more and more developers, Salesforce is getting closer to making use of web standards to excel at UI development. Even the ones who are new to Salesforce and are only familiar with the basic language for frontend like Visualforce Pages can easily jump on working with LWC, without the need to have detailed knowledge about Aura Components.  Developers can work on LWC using the modern JavaScript framework. This means that even any developer without any experience of working on Salesforce and is familiar with React or Node.JS can easily work with LWC. Lightning Web Components is a new programming model by Salesforce that helps developers to create reusable components on Salesforce using JavaScript. 

Why Developers Should Consider Lightning Web Components

The ease and efficiency of LWC are the factors that make it attractive for Salesforce developers. Apart from that, there are many reasons that make LWC an efficient option for developers. Here we have mentioned some of these reasons as to why it is efficient for Salesforce developers to use LWC. 

1. Needs Less Framework Training

Before LWC, developers used to work on the Aura framework, for which they had to take attentive training to understand working with these components. Despite the fact that frameworks like Angular and Lightning are all JavaScript frameworks, Salesforce developers couldn’t transfer the skills to Aura.  This issue was then overcome with LWC which helped to optimize the UI to enable continuous transformation. LWC makes the web stack look completely different, giving more focus to web standards. 

2. Enhanced Security Support

With LWC comes the Lightning Locker service. It is a security architecture that enforces security by combining the Lightning component in its own container. It allows Salesforce developers to control the access to framework internals and APIs. Locker service also helps developers to secure their Lightning web components by enabling best practices of JavaScript security. 

3. LWC and Aura can Co-Exist

Both Aura and LWC tend to use Lightning Data Services for communicating with Salesforce. There can even be times when LWC and Aura can be combined on the same page and share the same information. Both components can communicate with each other through events. 

4. Standardized Support and Testing

Salesforce developers use Jest, an open-source testing framework to write unit tests for Lightning web components. Jest is a powerful testing framework by Facebook and has features for creating JavaScript tests. Salesforce developers can easily run this testing framework from a command line, local machine, or using VS Code IDE.
