Salesforce Certified Platform Developer II — Question 14

A developer is trying to decide between creating a Visualforce component or a Lightning component for a custom screen.
Which functionality consideration impacts the final decision?

Answer options

• A. Does the screen need to be rendered as a PDF?
• B. Does the screen need to be accessible from the Lightning Experience UI?
• C. Will the screen make use of a JavaScript framework?
• D. Will the screen be accessed via a mobile app?

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because Visualforce supports rendering screens as PDFs, which is not a capability of Lightning components. Options B, C, and D are not decisive factors for choosing between the two, as Lightning components are designed for the Lightning Experience UI and can utilize JavaScript frameworks effectively.
