It seems like the lightning
tag covers this topic well, and is more heavily used than lightning-experience
.
No. Lightning Experience is a very specific UI Framework. Lightning encompasses a wide variety of features, including Lightning Components
, Lightning Process Builder
, Lightning Connect
, and so on. LEX definitely deserves its own tag.

But lightning has a description that suggests it's an alias for lightning-experience, but is largely used as an adjective for other tags. This is tangentially related to my post about component. – sfdcfox May 27 '18 at 22:39

lightning has been tainted as an adjective tag, and I'm not sure it's easily fixable. Ideally, lightning should be aliased to lightning-experience, but then we'll have to keep fixing people that are tagging lightning with other tags, like service-console and lightning-components. We probably need some new tags, such as lightning-service-console, since there isn't feature parity with classic service-console, which in turn should be aliased to classic-service-console. I think we've got an inherent problem with tags as they exist today, and we should start monitoring them more closely, and setting examples by correcting tags. I've done a lot more tag edits in the past two weeks than I have in the past two years, and we've really only just begun. By not keeping on top of the Lightning situation as it developed, we've accumulated a ton of tagging debt that needs to be paid sooner or later.
