Take Away Tips:
• At a small nonprofit if you've been hired on as a developer, expect to do a little bit of everything from administration, to BA, to solution architecht + developer.
• Nonprofits can run into the problem of developers, coding and then ghosting. If this happens to you -- take a step back from the code, map out what the system is doing, and document it. Then you can use a sandbox to turn off the code and see if you can manage the same thing declaratively. If you decide to alter the code in the sandbox and it works, great! Now document that too!
• You do not need to even know Salesforce to learn development. It helps, but once you understand how the data model works you can work step by step to be a coder.
• Start small by hitting the trails or getting on the waitlist for Warren's next Cloud Code Academy Cohort
• Chat GPT may be able to help you untangle code, but be aware that it may not always be right.
For more awesome tips, check at Warren's youtube channel, Salesforce Mentor website, and Cloud Code Academy. His first cohort sold out in 39 minutes, so keep your ear to the floor!
