The brand new yr begins off with a great deal of new RFCs! Learn extra about prompt deprecations of Route render strategies and chosen ApplicationController properties 🈸! We even have a brand new RFC for a model new look of emberjs.com, efficiency enhancements 🏎 for the API Docs search, a brand new beta launch of ember-cli-babel and a complicated testing examination for you!
The official Ember web site is due for a brand new feel and look. That’s the reason a new RFC proposes a fully new look 💅 for emberjs.com. A aspect impact of not having up to date the appear and feel of the web site for some years is that for individuals who aren’t concerned within the day-to-day of Ember improvement, it’s straightforward to overlook simply how properly the framework has stored up over time.
The redesign goals to modernize, replace and enhance all of the issues on the web site in order that the impression given to most of the people matches actuality.
There’s already dialogue happening within the RFC remark part, and we might love to listen to your ideas as properly.
Do you bear in mind Route.render() and Route.renderTemplate()? You may not. Actually, these route strategies have been much less and fewer emphasised within the Ember studying story and are usually not even talked about within the Ember Guides anymore. Though these APIs had been helpful prior to now, these days a component-focussed method permits Ember builders to omit them solely.
Subsequently, a new RFC suggests the deprecation of Route#render and Route#renderTemplate. You possibly can learn extra in regards to the motivation behind it and how you can substitute these strategies in your software in the unique proposal.
Questions? Solutions? Go away them proper within the feedback part of the RFC!
With the introduction of the Router Service it has been simpler than ever to verify on present app state, e.g. the identify of the lively route, anyplace in your software.

The map exhibits knowledge facilities the place the API docs are presently saved and (on the fitting) the efficiency enchancment for the highest looking international locations.
@pzuraq just lately introduced the discharge of ember-cli-babel@v7.3.0-beta.1!

To learn extra on the includeExternalHelpers try the docs!
Ember’s testing story already makes testing extremely approachable to builders, however what if it might convey much more to the desk proper from the beginning? Think about having the ability to pace up your check suite with parallel testing or operating assessments in randomized order with an ember check command in your app.
A brand new RFC proposes an replace to the testing default in Ember apps and addons by offering ember-exam – an Ember addon builders can already use for superior testing methods – constructed into Ember’s testing setup.
