Break free from Technical Debt
Even the newest orgs can have technical debt. Moving to Lightning Experience is a unique opportunity to break free from that debt and build a better experience for your users. In this session the Aleksandra will address the most common reasons that cause the technical debt and provide the list of all issues that need to be addressed before one Salesforce org can move from Classic to Lightning.
We will cover the proposed solutions that will help not only orgs in transition, but also ones who are already in LEX but are blocked by massive technical debt. The processes and solutions will not only help with cleaning out the debt, but also with shaping up the existing functionalities and turning an org into a system that will be easier to improve, upgrade and maintain.
This practical session tackles different approaches, and questions are welcome.
