We're Building Javascript apps

... and how ember can help

In Development

  • Strong conventions
  • Great resources
  • A single runtime
  • Reusable components
  • Better build tools

Strong Conventions


ROUTER
ROUTE
CONTROLLER
VIEW
COMPONENT

... and back up ^

Great resources


http://emberjs.com/guides/

The community is serious about v1+ guides. 
Errors get update. Fast.

SINGLE RUNTIME


Everything is JavaScript

EXTENSIBLE COMPONENTS


A few examples of how developers
are sharing components:

Ember Table
Ember Charts
Ember Tabs
Ember Menu

KILLER TOOLS


Browser applications get first-class development tools.


Ember-cli


EMBER BROWSER EXTENSION

SQUISHY THINGS


Community
Care
Commitment

COMMUNITY


Community is a dumb word.  But Ember has it.

430 devs at the first EmberConf

100s more on the waitlist

COMMUNITY


Everyone high-fiving everyone

CARE

TIL:

The Ember core team cares a lot about
developing solid primitives pre-1.0

pre-1.0 is slow with lots of false starts

post-1.0 is fast and furious

CARE


Ember Release Channels

COMMITMENT


BUILT WITH EMBER


... it's a helluvah list for a 1 1/2 year old framework

Future THINGS


Ember is shaping the future of JavaScript

  • ES6 Modules
  • Web components
  • Dev/build tools

Ember is shaping the future of JSMVC


Batman 0.15.0 Views "borrow liberally" from ember-view

The late NickJS was trying to bring Ember-style controllers into Batman before his demise

After much community uproar, AngularJS is, quite literally, implementing ember-router in AngularJS 2.0

Backbone continues to pretend that the world isn't changing

If you're interested in the future of {{FRAMEWORK}}*, look at ember.


* If you want to know what Backbone is going to
excuse as being 'unimportant' as a footer in their docs...
