Group of developers

Hello everybody,

My question is, can a group of developers work on the same application in salesforce. And, if the answer is yes, how can we proceed ?
 
Thank you :)

Yes, sort of. Normally the best practice it to have each person working in their own development sandbox and check their code into some sort of code repository. The other users would check out that code into their development sandboxes. Once code is ready to be tested, it can be deployed into a shared sandbox for testing, and from there deployed into production. However, there are variations of this that can also be used depending on the size of your team, what parts of the application you are working on, etc. etc. 

There is an entire guide on application lifecycle management here: http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/dev_lifecycle/salesforce_development_lifecycle.pdf

Here is a session from Dreamforce that also goes into some different ways to manage lifecycle
