Our Scenario

We’ll continue the business scenario of Acme Wireless and build functionality to meet the needs of their mobile technicians and warehouse workers.
You’ll learn how to:
  • Optimize the mobile experience for users by employing mobile-first user interface design.
  • Implement Visualforce pages so that mobile users can access them from the navigation menu or action bar, from a record, or from the publisher in the full Salesforce site.
  • Create a Visualforce custom action to make a Visualforce page available from the action bar or from the publisher in the full Salesforce site.
  • Implement development best practices when extending the Salesforce app.
