“In this book, the authors cover a brief history of DevOps in Salesforce, which reminded me of my journey using Salesforce tooling. I did not get to use s-controls, but I did use the Salesforce migration tool and MavensMate quite a lot!

They explain what it means to follow a DevOps culture and the benefits it brings to companies, as well as to individuals. I loved the comparison of different branching strategies, as well as the dialectic and beauty with which the book is written, and I think it’s a must-read!”

Alba Rivas, Principal Developer Advocate at Salesforce
