Optional: Install the Contact List App

If you want to skip over the quick start tutorial, you can install the Contact List app as a package.
This packaged app is useful if you want to learn about the Lightning app without going through the quick start tutorial. If you’re new to Lightning components, we recommend that you go through the quick start tutorial.

Install the package in an org that doesn’t have any of the objects with the same API name as the quick start objects.

Note

  1. Click the installation URL link: https://login.salesforce.com/packaging/installPackage.apexp?p0=04to00000003pLQ
