Lightning development can become more faster with strike

Appiphony Presents Strike

Strike provides set of component and utilities to boost the lightning development on Salesforce.

In its previous version, it has two things:-

•  An interactive gallery enables you to explore things which Lightning Base components can achieve.
•  A collection of its own open source Lightning components that gives advanced UI features.

The Interactive Gallery

Though we showed interest in the learning curve when we began working in Lightning, we got more friction than what we imagined and determining what is possible with the lightning Base components. The Visualforce documentation explains many concepts with the combination of both screenshots and code examples. This augments the dry reference material with critical context on why and when you would use a certain Visualforce tag.

Since we couldn’t look at the component that what they can do, we found ourselves wishing for a tool like JSFiddle or Apigee so we could use it before the actual implementation. They figured out a way to make one using Communities, and it quickly became obvious this would be something we’d want to share.

Components for custom UIs

Like me or any Salesforce developer can tell you a story of a time when they needed a UI component not provided out of the box (like TimePicker). We have a project recently in which we need to show a toast for a success and failure messages. So, we have created a common component to achieve this requirement in a very efficient way. But, there are a lot of things available in Strike which can be used including my situation also.

There is more than 20 component available currently which can help developers to build app really fast on salesforce lightning.
