Salesforce Apex Code development

Apex is a language that only deals with logic of the business variety. Finding a route into developing it proves a little more complicated that you might think.

You need Salesforce

You need a developer account and a sandbox to play about in. As soon as you save Apex it is live!

Get the Eclipse platform with the Java IDE

Next download the Salesforce IDE from the website

You need a developer account, this must be separate from your normal salesforce account

log into you developer account by going through .force.com

The old starting apex development video made in 2007 suggests that when in salesforce you go to:

Setup - Build - code

but this is no longer the case as the build tab does not exist on a clean install

To see triggers, they are under:

Setup - Customise - XYZ - Triggers
