Clone a Contact using Apex and Visualforce

To Clone a Contact or any other object in Salesforce we need a VisualForce  Page  and a Controller Class

here we have a VisualForce  Page and controller extension for the VisualForce  Page

After creating VisualForce  Page we call our VisualForce  Page according to our need either on button click or  tab click.

Here Is Code  To Clone a Contact

<apex:page standardController="Contact" extensions="ContactCloneController" id="pageId">
    
    <apex:form id="formId">
        <apex:pagemessages ></apex:pagemessages>
        <apex:pageBlock title="Contact Edit">
            <apex:pageBlockButtons >
                <apex:commandButton action="{!customSave}" value="Save"/>
                <button class="btn" style="padding:4px;" onclick="window.open('/{!$currentpage.parameters.id}', target='_self');return false;">Cancel</button>
            </apex:pageBlockButtons>
