Overview of this book

Ember.js is an open source JavaScript framework that will make you more productive. It uses common idioms and practices, making it simple to create amazing single-page applications. It also lets you create code in a modular way using the latest JavaScript features. Not only that, it has a great set of APIs to get any task done. The Ember.js community is welcoming newcomers and is ready to help you when needed. This book provides in-depth explanations on how to use the Ember.js framework to take you from beginner to expert. You’ll start with some basic topics and by the end of the book, you’ll know everything you need to know to build a fully operational Ember application. We’ll begin by explaining key points on how to use the Ember.js framework and the associated tools. You’ll learn how to effectively use Ember CLI and how to create and deploy your application. We’ll take a close look at the Ember object model and templates by examining bindings and observers. We’ll then move onto Ember components, models, and Ember Data. We’ll show you examples on how to connect to RESTful databases. Next we’ll get to grips with testing with integration and acceptance tests using QUnit. We will conclude by covering authentication, services, and Ember add-ons. We’ll explore advanced topics such as services and initializers, and how to use them together to build real-time applications.

Using server side rendering

Ember.js runs in the browser. It uses JavaScript to handle all the routing and rendering of data. It only talks to the server on the initial page load and to retrieve JSON data. This can have some limitations. Larger applications might take longer to load on slower connections and there is still some concern around search engine optimization.

To help alleviate these concerns, the Ember team created FastBoot. FastBoot is an Ember CLI add-on that allows Ember.js to render and serve applications on the server. It's a work in progress as of writing this and has some limitations. It's not recommended for production and doesn't work with jQuery or didInsertElement. It will hopefully be production-ready by Ember v2.4.

Nevertheless, it's improving and is an important add-on for Ember.

How to do it...

  1. In a new application, run these commands:
    $ ember install ember-cli-fastboot
    $ rm –rf bower_components
    $ bower install --save ember#canary
    

    FastBoot...
