Bonjour Emberistas! 🐹
This week your assist is required to convey tree-shaking 🌳 to Ember apps! RFCs on route actions and dynamic tags are prepared for your feedback 📢. We’re additionally highlighting Ember for CodeSandbox ✨, and the superior #30DaysOfEmber 📆 collection. Learn on!
A promising method to cut back the scale of Ember apps dramatically is named tree-shaking. This describes a approach to exclude any code out of your bundle which is in the end not wanted to your utility to work as anticipated.
The Packager RFC (Request for Feedback) for bringing tree-shaking to Ember apps was accepted in April this 12 months. Since then, plenty of progress has already been made on the Ember & Ember CLI aspect of issues. There may be even the experimental addon ember-cli-tree-shaker that has been a tangible product of latest efforts to permit you to check out tree shaking at present. However there’s nonetheless much more to do. Your assist is required!
In case you’re feeling as much as the duty to assist tree-shaking land in Ember and also you’re curious to be taught extra about Ember CLI internals, make sure to attain out to @kellyselden on both Twitter or the #topic-tree-shaking Discord channel to get began!
Actions in Ember are often outlined in a controller. Nonetheless the addon ember-route-action-helper has existed for a while and means that you can use actions, outlined within the route, inside your templates. Some say that this enables much less dependance on controllers. A brand new RFC (Request for Feedback) for Route Actions has been prompt by @vasilakisfil that proposes integrating this helper into Ember core to be used in all apps with out the necessity for the addon.
It is very important state that the addon has a warning about utilizing it and that controllers are nonetheless an integral a part of Ember as defined final week in our Readers’ Query: What’s the Way forward for Controllers.
If you want to chime in and be part of the dialogue make sure to take a look at this RFC right here.
@cibernox has submitted a brand new RFC suggesting dynamic tag names in glimmer templates. Within the transition from utilizing inner-html semantics to utilizing outer-html semantics in parts there’s one function that has been misplaced: Having the ability to dynamically outline the tag title of parts.
To resolve this concern the RFC proposes a brand new component helper that takes a tag title and generates a contextual element that, when invoked, renders the chosen component. Like this:
<Tag ...>...</Tag>
You may check out a working proof of idea on Github and you may learn all the main points concerning the RFC within the proposal.
CodeSandbox is an internet code editor that helps you create internet functions, from prototype to deployment. It helps quite a lot of internet frameworks, and with the most recent launch, now formally helps Ember. This was made attainable because of a pull request by @mike-north.
Strive it out at present by clicking on Ember underneath server templates when creating a brand new sandbox!
Word: Ember is positioned underneath “server templates” as a result of server templates are sandboxes that execute on a server as an alternative of the browser.
@PoslinskiNet revealed a terrific studying collection for these beginning out with Ember. The #30DaysOfEmber collection goes by 30 matters starting from Computed Properties to Internationalization with the purpose of changing into acquainted with Ember on the finish of it.
In case you haven’t but, take a look at the slides for #30DaysOfEmber or on Twitter Moments at present!
