What are lightning web components

Lightning Web Components (LWC) are custom HTML and javascript code that are deployable on the salesforce platform, enabling the creation of modern UI elements using cutting-edge web technologies. With LWC, developers can create components usable across web, mobile, and various digital platforms.

A standout feature of LWC is its use of modern JavaScript syntax, incorporating ECMAScript 6 features like modules, classes, and promises. This not only streamlines development but also ensures compatibility and future-proofing.

Lightning web components use core web component standard and hence it runs natively on the browser. Hence it is natively lightweight and delivers high performance compared to aura components.

The Salesforce platform offers an extensive array of pre-built components, simplifying the development of custom user interfaces. These components can seamlessly interact with records within the Salesforce platform, enhancing functionality and usability.
