Salesforce Summer 08 – it just keeps getting better

Filed under: Salesforce — cairlinn @ 6:27 pm

Salesforce has announced new features that will be available in the Summer 08 release. You can view them here.
One of the best features is Visualforce. Now developers can truly customize the user experience within Salesforce.
This does away with the intricate (and error prone) coding involved with s-controls.

If you have a developer account, please go to the Tabbed Accounts example to see the ease and power of Visualforce.
It allows you to break up the long Account detail page into multiple tabs with about 15 lines of code.

The combination of APEX on the backend and Visualforce as the user interface is going to allow developers the full freedom of application creation using the Force.com platform.

I will be posting more about this with more examples in the future.
