Dev Channel Features
The Dev channel includes these features:
- Dynamic Lists (Developer Preview)
- Handle massive amounts of data without slowing down your web browser. Whether you’re showing 50 or 5,000 items, dynamic lists use virtualization to render items as you scroll for a smooth user experience. For more information, see the Lightning Component Reference.
- Right-to-Left (RTL) Improvements
- Enjoy better RTL support in Lightning Experience for orgs that use an RTL language
like Arabic or Hebrew. RTL fixes across many product areas include replacing directional
CSS properties with logical equivalents, such as replacing
margin-leftandmargin-righttomargin-inline-startandmargin-inline-end. - Internal Method Changes in Base Components
- Improve component security and encapsulation by restricting access to internal logic.
This effort aligns with modern web standards and doesn't impact the public API of the
base components. In Summer ‘26, these components start using private methods:
lightning-progress-indicator,lightning-progress-ring,lightning-progress-step, andlightning-spinner.
Feature Overrides
Certain features provide override options for you to explicitly disable or enable the feature. Feature overrides are available for the Dev channel only. You can use the default enablement option or choose to override it.
Consider these feature override guidelines for the Dev channel.
- Default: Salesforce controls the availability of the feature.
- Enabled: The feature is always available, regardless of Salesforce’s configuration.
- Disabled: The feature isn’t available, regardless of Salesforce’s configuration.
