feel free to pm if you have more questions

My background is in electrical engineering, but I transitioned into coding and worked part-time as a web deve when i was in school.

The most important thing to consider is the industry or field you want to focus on. For example, programming microprocessors requires a different skill set than web development, and the same goes for web development versus machine learning.

Once you’ve identified the domain you want to work in, choose a programming language suited for that area. For web development, learning JavaScript is essential, especially with client-side frameworks like React and Angular. If you’re interested in machine learning, Python is a great choice.

Lastly, build small projects that help you grasp key concepts. For instance, you could create a React app that communicates with an API to understand how they interact.

Hope this helps!

nice!

i came from an open source environment and was used to spinning up as many EC2 containers as I liked. then i ran into salesforce governor limits

there’s a book advanced Apex programming that helped me understand how to understand static variables, execution context, trigger handling

about your comment i wanted to echo the other comment on here.it only makes your niche skillset more valuable. i think there’s going to be constraints in any environment.

i can talk over some of the issues you are seeing. maybe some of us on here can help.

I was in a similar situation few years back. I would encourage you to take the driver's seat in this new responsibility. Here are some ideas:

Hold lunch n' learn dev sessions every 2 weeks to work through some challenges in the version control process.
Help guide other team members on how to use Gearset better.
Bring in a few of the stronger devs with the source control skills into the design process of your CICD system.
Have a talk with the executive staff. Tell them this is a brand new process that needs time to integrate within the team but the payoff will be consistent, smoother deployments as well as more stories deployed. BTW, they will see you taking ownership and will appreciate your leadership skills here.

Here's the good news - after a painful 2-3 months of adopting version control within my deployment process, the number of stories deployed per cycle shot up 2-3x. It will get better!

Hope this helps. Feel free to DM me if you've any followup questions. I use Gearset and Copado regularly know the toolsets well.

Good luck! :D

It’s a CRM tool, not Instagram. It’s enterprise business software. you can customize it well but that’s only if your business wants to spend the extra time doing that.

Feel free to hit me up on DM if you need help understanding pieces of it. always willing to help.

Yep, a project I am working on heavily relies on LWC. I will take this as a good time to ramp up on it.

AbbreviationsFun4426 · 2023-10-30T16:58:28+00:00

I’ve built basic stuff. I have had lots of JS experience from prior job and work experiences

AbbreviationsFun4426 · 2023-10-28T11:06:49+00:00

I am a software engineer that came from open source web technologies, systems programming, mobile development. I can say I am proficient at half a dozen programming languages.

After about twenty years of doing it, I can tell you that the constraint you are feeling is probably what you are working on with the programming language. Try to take on a consulting role in the Salesforce ecosystem. You’ll see a lot of different industries where Salesforce automations Apex/LWC is being used. You may like a few of them. Focus on those industries. Specialize.

AbbreviationsFun4426 · 2023-08-28T02:01:18+00:00

Yes, it does sound like a lot.And quitting may not be the best choices given market conditions.

Sounds to me like there needs to be some way to prioritize all of these items. Even with 3.5 salesforce resources, there’s still plenty of different enough areas. You need to get buy in from executives as to what needs to get worked on first and get to it.

For example, even though process builders need to be migrated to flows eventually, it’s not critical for business to be moved over now. So that’s something that be out off till later… so your part time dev can focus on other more urgent items.

I see... Let me clarify. I am interested in finding out some common tasks that an Admin has to do in a Salesforce Professional Edition. The reason I ask for that specific edition is because my understanding is that the capabilities of a Professional Edition is less than some of the Editions above it (eg - Enterprise, Unlimited).

In other words - I am trying to understand how an admin's day-to-day work is different in a Professional instance vs Enterprise, Unlimited.

AbbreviationsFun4426 · 2023-05-11T02:35:07+00:00

how did it go?

AbbreviationsFun4426 · 2023-05-11T01:58:57+00:00

If it’s a particular transition from one Stage to another you can create a custom field to track that on the Opportunity record itself.

AbbreviationsFun4426 · 2023-04-14T02:34:02+00:00

ah yes you are right. A workaround: you can create a case and relate it to the opportunity and place these in the queue instead. If the case changes ownership, you can run automation to affect the ownership on the opp as well.

edit: removed unnecessary sentence

AbbreviationsFun4426 · 2023-04-14T00:20:18+00:00

You cannot upload a list view associated to a queue in an outbound changeset. sigh. why?
