Platform List View Generate

This generates Salesforce ListView metadata files when you need filtered, column-based record views. It handles the full workflow from specification to deployment, including choosing visibility scope (all users vs. restricted), setting filter logic with proper operators for each field type, and organizing columns for scanning efficiency. The real value is in the validation layer. It catches the annoying stuff that breaks deployments: using field labels instead of API names, mismatched operators on picklists or dates, path and fullName misalignment. If you're building list views in source control or troubleshooting why they won't deploy, this walks through the decision points and keeps you from fighting XML syntax errors.
