Architect Journey – Development Lifecycle And Deployment Practice Exam

What is the first step in the Salesforce DX app creation workflow?

Set up your project. Authorize the Developer Hub org for the project. Configure your local project. Create a scratch org.

Correct Answer:

Set up your project.

Explanation:

Starting with a Salesforce DX app workflow, the very first step is to set up your DX project. This creates the project skeleton—the folder structure, the sfdx-project.json configuration, and the places where metadata and scratch org definitions will live. Without this workspace in place, there’s no centralized context to organize source, track changes, or manage scratch orgs and packages. Once the project exists, you can authorize the Dev Hub to enable scratch org management, then configure the local project settings (like paths and package directories), and finally create a scratch org to begin development. Each later step relies on having the project scaffold, so skipping the setup would leave you with no coherent workspace to operate in.
