Lightning Web Components (LWC) is a UI framework from Salesforce that allows developers to create reusable components for Salesforce pages. LWC is built on web standards like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and runs natively in the browser.
Here are some features of LWC:
- Lightweight
- LWC is a lightweight framework that uses custom elements, templates, and other language constructs from ECMAScript 7.
- Fast and efficient
- LWC uses native web standards to create components that are fast and efficient.
- Abstraction layer
- LWC is an abstraction layer on top of Web Component APIs that simplifies the developer experience.
- Two-way data binding
- LWC supports two-way data binding, which helps coordinate how data moves between components.
- Lazy loading
- LWC allows developers to load data only when it's required.
- Infinite scrolling
- LWC allows developers to load a subset of data and then load more when users scroll to the end.
- Interoperability
- LWC is designed to work with Aura components, allowing for a smooth transition between the two.
