If you wish to take up the challenges that Lightning throws at you head–on, then look no further because this practical course will be your faithful companion and ensure that you make best use of the Lightning platform. 

With this practical course, you’ll initially explore the art of working with standard components and build a basic layout for the application. Then, you will add more advanced components using the Lightning framework. Finally, you will also build and migrate reports and dashboards to make your app look more professional. Than you will learn how to roll out to Lightning in an existing organization and work with some really amazing point–and–click features to enhance your application’s user interface.
