@pzuraq opened up a pair of RFCs that supplemented the not too long ago merged Tracked Properties RFC.
The Decorator Assist RFC is a comply with as much as the Decorators RFC because it was premised on decorators transferring from stage 2 within the TC39 course of to stage 3. Nevertheless since decorators remained in stage 2, and haven’t been rejected, and that every one events had been in settlement concerning the invocation syntax of decorators – decorators ought to current a minimal quantity of threat to Ember and its customers. The adjustments within the spec will principally have an effect on library and framework maintainers, however not finish customers in most circumstances. Ember will start by supporting the most recent model of the decorators remodel offered by Babel.
The Tracked Property Traditional Class Descriptor RFC provides the descriptor decorator for traditional courses solely which permits customers to outline native getters and setters (and different properties). This offers a transparent 1-1 translation between native and basic syntax invocations as a method so as to add getters and setters to basic courses.

Partials in Ember have been round for fairly a while. Immediately nevertheless, they’re thought of unhealthy apply and all of their performance could be changed with Parts. There may be an Ember Template Lint rule in opposition to their use. There was a Pre-RFC created some time in the past that really useful deprecating partials. Immediately we lastly have a full RFC to Deprecate Partials written up by @GavinJoyce. If you wish to study extra concerning the deprecation or perhaps the alternate options to partials try the RFC. Additionally make sure to chime in and voice your issues or add a 👍🎉 to the RFC itself.
Two new Requests for Feedback (RFC) suggest deprecations to higher keep away from confusion in Ember apps:
One of many proposals goals to rename the htmlSafe template helper and util to trustedHtml in an effort to convey the mechanism of the util higher.
The second RFC proposes the deprecation of the with template helper acknowledging the fairly current let helper, that may now be utilized in templates as a substitute of and with a lot clearer intent than with.
Make sure you try the unique proposals for the renaming of htmlSafe and the deprecation of the with helper and depart your feedback under!
Do not miss @rondale-sc and @code0100fun interviewing @rwjblue on Episode 128 of the Ember Weekend podcast RFC Roundup Redux.

I had wished to make some giant breaking adjustments to ember-simple-tree,
with a purpose to allow me to customise it to my liking. Provided that it might break backward compatibility and current functions, I figured my adjustments would by no means be accepted. So I forked it and launched my model as ember-light-tree.
I used to be stunned when Bujorel Tecu AKA @btecu, the writer of ember-simple-tree,
contacted me and wished to work collectively to incorporate my adjustments. Consequently, my adjustments are actually within the newest model of
ember-simple-tree.
Despite the fact that we needed to sacrifice technical backward compatibility, it was necessary to @btecu that we had a shared resolution. One of many fundamental strengths of Ember is how shared conventions allow builders to construct on prime of one another’s work and enhance the ecosystem for everybody. It is heartening to see this view echoed within the Ember addon neighborhood.
