How Does SKUID Work? Business Benefits of SKUID

SKUID stands for Scalable Kit for User Interface Development.

Skuid’s drag-and-drop can be used to build Apps/VF user interfaces in the drag-and-drop App Composer. The App Composer consists of two essential ingredients—Components and Models.

• Skuid Components comprises a library of pre-built components to create the best possible user experience. These can be very easily used to manage page layouts and interact with Salesforce data.
• Skuid Models allow interaction with data from any data source in real-time.

Working with SKUID:

Connect to your Salesforce objects & external data through models.

• Click on Compose -> New page.
• Use Models to connect the SKUID page to the Salesforce Standard & Custom objects as well as external data sources.
• For each model choose the Standard & custom fields for your salesforce objects that you want to include in your page.

Compose your page with available SKUID components or create your own.

• Drag & drop components to your page & arrange them in the manner you want. SKUID is having a library of pre-built components and also if you want you can customize according to your needs by creating, sharing & reusing your own components.

Deploy the pages to override standard Salesforce tabs & actions

• To override the Standard salesforce tabs & actions only a simple Visualforce page is required.

Adjust the pages according to the requirements

• Even when the pages are in production, you just need to edit the page to go back to the page builder & apply the compose themes to the UI to update them accordingly.
