How DX helps the developers ?
Developers are always source-driven people. Salesforce DX (developer experience) enables the
developer to work with any externalized source - even incorporating version control
Allows them to collaborate with other members of team.
Combination of the environment and the source code that leads to faster development of mobile
apps.
Packaging model that is used to aid in the distribution of changes

Benefits offered by Salesforce DX
● allows to test the features with agility and confidence.
● In many ways, it brings together the best of the Force.com and Heroku developer experiences.
It’s a new approach that supports team collaboration with a focus on quality, predictability, and
an open and standardized development lifecycle on Salesforce.
● Salesforce DX and our new command-line interface, you can use the text editor or IDE of your
choice, along with the CLI, to develop your app. It’s up to you.
● When it is time to test your development work, then a Salesforce DX uses a scratch org and
pushes the metadata
● With Salesforce DX, you could use our all-new Heroku CI

Benefits offered by Salesforce DX
● The Salesforce DX has shifted from an application life cycle model to a packaged development
model. In the packaged development model, the source of truth is the version control unlike
the other models, where production.org is the source of truth.
● As soon as the developer becomes ready for continuous delivery automation and release
testing then they start using a packaged version in each of the testing environments.
● we speak of continuous delivery then we speak about sandboxes. Here the packaged version is
used and installed in the sandbox.
● the build and deploy process that is parallel operation to the above change set method is still
supported by Salesforce.

Benefits of scratch org.
❖ It is easy to integrate scratch org into a CI process. The scratch orgs are created by the
CLI and this makes the life of the developer much easier as scripting them in CI flow
becomes easier.
❖ These can be created throughout the day unlike the sandboxes.
❖ The scratch org is easily deleted whenever the need arises.
❖ It works with limited overheads.
❖ The scratch org can send reminders to Github and when it reaches expiration it will send
an email to remind the user.

The Dos and Don’ts in Salesforce DX
● Never to export entire org in a project instead think of modularization of code.
● Put shared schema and be careful
● Watch out for shared objects
● Atleast running with a CI for commit
● Must not export live data from production org. No need to make copies of production data into
scratch org. t is good to create good sample data
● Make sure the work for all developers must be integrated.
