Hi,where else can we write lightning component code other than in Developer Console?

Developer console is not opening.
It showing page loading since longer time.
So instead of Developer Console is there any other tool where we can write Lightning Component code?

Please help.

Hi Shruthi,

I trust you are doing very well.

You can use Eclipse IDE to develop Lightning Components. Please refer to the below links which might help you.

However, if the developer console is showing loading message, you can just copy the https link (Replace YOURORGANISATION with the domain name):
https://YOURORGANISATION.my.salesforce.com/_ui/common/apex/debug/ApexCSIPage
Open a new tab, copy and paste the link, and the console will open as usual in a new tab/page. 


I hope it helps you.

Kindly let me know if it helps you and close your query by marking it as solved so that it can help others in the future.

Thanks and Regards,
Khan Anas
