Before You Begin

Before you begin to explore Salesforce DX, you must set up the Salesforce DX environment.
If you participated in the Salesforce DX Beta, follow the instructions in Verify Your Installation. That’s it. You’re ready to go.
  1. Enable the Developer Hub (Dev Hub) in your production org (if you're a customer) or your business org (if you're an AppExchange partner).
    If you want to try out Salesforce DX first, you can sign up for a trial org that has Dev Hub enabled.
  2. Enable Second-Generation Packaging (2GP) in your org so you can develop 2GP packages.
  3. If you want to include your team, you can add users to your Dev Hub org.
  4. Ensure that your computers meet all system requirements.
  5. If you want to evaluate the Force.com IDE 2 (Beta) or Salesforce Development Tools for Visual Studio Code, download and install them.
  6. Download the Salesforce DX samples from GitHub.
