Since Salesforce1 and Lightning Experience automatically handle many events, you have to do extra work if your component runs in a standalone app. Instantiating the event using $A.get() can help you determine if your component is running within Salesforce1 and Lightning Experience or a standalone app. For example, you want to display a toast when a component loads in Salesforce1 and Lightning Experience. You can fire the force:showToast event and set its parameters for Salesforce1 and Lightning Experience, but you have to create your own implementation for a standalone app.
displayToast : function (component, event, helper) { var toast = $A.get("e.force:showToast"); if (toast){ //fire the toast event in Salesforce1 and Lightning Experience toast.setParams({ "title": "Success!", "message": "The component loaded successfully." }); toast.fire(); } else { //your toast implementation for a standalone app here } }
