In today's episode, we’re joined by Igor Kudryk - the Founder of Cloud Prism, which is a business focused on teaching Salesforce Administrators how to code.
Igor explains when he first became interested in programming, how he learned to code, and how he found studying Computer Science. Igor initially focused on Java and spent a period working with JavaScript, and he explains how this benefited him when he first came to work with Salesforce.
We discuss front and backend development and ponder whether Salesforce Developers should specialise or be full stack.
Igor explains where the idea for training Salesforce Administrators how to code came from, what the fundamentals are that people should focus on, what people struggle with, and how he sees Salesforce Flow impacting the roles of Developers and Administrators in the future.
