Prerequisites

To complete the quick start you need access to a Developer Edition organization. You must also create at least two groups and post to them so their feeds contain data.

You can't develop Apex in your Salesforce production organization. Live users accessing the system while you're developing can destabilize your data or corrupt your application. Instead, you must do all your development work in either a sandbox or a Developer Edition organization.

If you aren't already a member of the developer community, go to http://developer.force.com/join and follow the instructions to sign up for a Developer Edition account. A Developer Edition account gives you access to a free Developer Edition organization. Even if you already have an Enterprise, Unlimited, or Performance Edition organization and a sandbox for creating Apex, we strongly recommends that you take advantage of the resources available in the developer community.
