Hi ,
I think there is a way to have your code explained to you using generative AI in a safe environment.
Hi @M Ajay
,
You can use Agentforce for Developers to understand the code create documentation, write test classes write class triggers and flows etc.
First check if it's allowed in your project to use Agentforce for developers if yes then you can use this trailhead to setup Agentforce in vs code and use it.
Or you can use any other tool like chatgpt,grok : - Write the code and give a proper promt explain the code line by line.
Hope this helps.
Hi, @M Ajay
If you have been provided with a Salesforce project code, you should pay attention to the following key aspects:
Although the Salesforce project folder contains many subfolders and files, the main ones to focus on are:
- In the force-app/main/default folder:
- classes – This folder contains all your Apex classes and controllers.
- triggers – This is where Apex triggers are located, if any exist.
- aura – This folder contains Aura components.
- lwc – This is the folder with your LWC components.
Depending on the requirements and needs of the project, you will explore the relevant folders and track the connections between files accordingly.
You can also use generative artificial intelligence to analyze your component code or folder structure for explanations. However, AI-generated explanations may not always be accurate because AI does not have access to your specific project architecture, including object relationships.
Regarding objects and their relationships, you should also examine them within your project to understand how they are connected. To do this, open your Salesforce Org and use Object Manager or Schema Builder
to review your objects, their fields, and their relationships.
Sincerely,
