Note:- Custom sObject >> NewStudent__c

You need to change custom sObject name and there fields name with your custom sObject.

Step 1:- Create Lightning Component : wrapperClassCustomObjCmp.cmp

From Developer Console >> File >> New >> Lightning Component

Step 3:- Create Lightning Component : wrapperClassCustomObjCmpHelper.js

From Developer Console >> File >> New >> Lightning Component >> JavaScript Helper

wrapperClassCustomObjCmpHelper.js [JavaScript Helper File]

```
   ({
```

	refreshView : function(component, event, helper) {

		var action = component.get("c.appCustomWrapListMthd");

```
 
```

        action.setCallback(this, function(response){

            var state = response.getState();

```
            if(state=='SUCCESS'){
```

                var result = response.getReturnValue();

                component.set('v.wrapListItems',result);

```
            }
```
```
        });
```
```
        $A.enqueueAction(action);
```
```
	}
```
```
  })
```

Step 4:- Create Lightning Component : wrapperClassCustomObjCmp.css

From Developer Console >> File >> New >> Lightning Component >> Component Style CSS

wrapperClassCustomObjCmp.css [Lightning Component File]

Note:-Static resource zip file

You need to change $Resource.SLDS2016 with your SLDS zip file name (static resource zip file Name)

```
   .THIS {
```
```
}
```

.THIS .slds-table thead tr th{background-color:#eee;}

.THIS .slds-table thead tr th, .THIS .slds-table tbody tr td {border:1px #dddbda solid; border-collapse: collapse; white-space: normal;}
