The official Salesforce Extensions for Visual Studio Code, providing Salesforce DX development tooling including Apex language support, debugging, SOQL query building, and Lightning/Visualforce support. It integrates with the Salesforce CLI and includes generative AI assistance features.

Use cases

  • develop Salesforce DX projects in VS Code
  • get Apex syntax highlighting and code completion
  • debug Apex code with a replay debugger
  • build SOQL queries with a visual editor
  • work with Lightning Aura components and Visualforce pages
  • get AI-assisted code writing for Salesforce development

When to choose

  • you are a Salesforce developer using VS Code
  • you need official Salesforce DX tooling and CLI integration
  • you want Apex debugging and language server features
  • you build Lightning Web Components or Visualforce pages

When to avoid

  • you do not develop for the Salesforce platform
  • you use a different IDE without extension support
  • you need a standalone Salesforce CLI rather than editor integration
