Future of Salesforce, what should developers focus on next?
Hi everyone,
I’m a Salesforce Developer with experience in Apex, LWC, Flows, integrations, and general CRM customization. Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the future of Salesforce, especially with AI becoming more common in development, automation, and business processes.
I wanted to ask the community:
What should Salesforce developers focus on going forward to stay relevant and valuable?
For people who are already working in senior Salesforce roles, architecture, consulting, or product teams:
Where do you see the demand going in the next 2–5 years?
Also, how much should a Salesforce Developer worry about AI replacing development work, versus using AI as a tool to become faster and more productive?
I’d really appreciate practical advice on what skills to build next, what areas are worth investing time in, and what mistakes to avoid.
Thanks!
