    thank you Matt so much for making this complete video.. really appreciated learning about domain class... that is a great idea.. haven't seen any project doing this...
    I got a bit lost on breaking trigger handlers by departments (marketing vs sales) and the apex common class... will review those other videos as well as I am missing g that foundation..
    really appreciate you putting this together...

    Do you have any videos (or recommend any) for people who want to learn about triggers through the “Table-Driven Trigger Management” (TDTM) feature from the managed packages EDA or NPSP?

    @CrisjunMarRavelo Před 5 měsíci

    47:30 what to do if a managed package has 2 triggers on an object and we want to create our own trigger implementation? 🤔
