Search Metadata In Lightning Experience

Arun Kumar has created a lightning component to consolidate searches for items such as Apex Classes, Apex Triggers, Visualforce pages, and components, mimicking the functionality of the 'Salesforce Advance Code Searcher' extension used in Salesforce classic. The component simplifies the search process in Salesforce Lightning Experience.

I believe every Salesforce developer try to access/find the Apex Class, Apex Trigger, Visualforce page, Visualforce component, etc. while developing in Salesforce, we have to navigate to the separate page to access these items. Let’s suppose if it is available in one place and can search these items that will save time. Isn’t it? 🙂

In Salesforce classic you may have used ‘Salesforce Advance Code Searcher’ google chrome extension, this makes the things super easy in Salesforce classic but it is not available for Lightning Experience till now, so I thought there should be something there (In Lightning Experience) to search small Metadata information like Apex Classes, Apex Triggers, Visualforce pages, Visualforce components, Static resources, etc. in single place.

I have developed a lightning component which will search these items in a place.
