That is the primary in our DecEmber sequence–”Countdown to The New 12 months: 31 Days of Ember Addons”. We plan to focus on a brand new addon every day till the brand new yr, and we hope you will be part of us for the enjoyable!
Day 1
To kick issues off, we’ll have a look at ember-sortable.
What It Does
The ember-sortable addon offers sortable UI primitives for Ember apps- that is tremendous helpful within the sense that groups do not must reinvent this quite common sample each time they want it for their very own functions!
Why I Like It
Whereas the ember-sortable addon has been round for a while now, offering a constant manner so as to add drag and drop performance to an Ember app, it’s the latest additions which have made this addon particularly price listening to. Yicheng Gong, a software program engineer at LinkedIn, seen that the addon was lacking accessibility help. He took on the work through the Adopted Ember Addons org, and up to date the addon so as to add the lacking options!
The addon now offers a keyboard-only technique to kind a bunch of items-
- Activate the merchandise utilizing
ENTERorSPACE - transfer the merchandise with the
ARROWkeys - affirm the brand new kind order with
ENTERorSPACE - or cancel the motion with the
ESCkey, and the kind order will probably be reverted.
I actually like the way in which this present addon was improved to make it extra accessible, and am each inspired and excited to see accessibility have an elevated focus within the Ember group.
Do you utilize this addon? Or one prefer it? We might love to listen to about Ember addons that convey you pleasure!
