Why Use the Aura Components Programming Model?
The benefits include an out-of-the-box set of components, event-driven architecture,
and a framework optimized for performance.
- Out-of-the-box Components
- Comes with an out-of-the-box set of components to kick start building apps. You don't have to spend your time optimizing your apps for different devices as the components take care of that for you.
- Rich Component Ecosystem
- Create business-ready components and make them available in the Salesforce mobile app, Lightning Experience, and Communities. Salesforce mobile app users access your components via the navigation menu. Customize Lightning Experience or Communities using drag-and-drop components on a Lightning Page in the Lightning App Builder or using Experience Builder. Additional components are available for your org in the AppExchange. Similarly, you can publish your components and share them with other users.
- Fast Development
- Empowers teams to work faster with out-of-the-box components that function seamlessly with desktop and mobile devices. Building an app with components facilitates parallel design, improving overall development efficiency.
- Components are encapsulated and their internals stay private, while their public shape is visible to consumers of the component. This strong separation gives component authors freedom to change the internal implementation details and insulates component consumers from those changes.
- Device-aware and Cross Browser Compatibility
- Apps use responsive design and support the latest in browser technology such as HTML5, CSS3, and touch events.
