Program

Microapplications with EmberJS by Jonathan Johnson

If you are tired of saying 'no' to small projects because the ongoing maintenance burden is too high this talk is for you. Learn about the parts of Ember that make it easy to build and deploy an app without fear of it holding your team back for years.

The World of Ember Macros and How to Create Your Own by Kelly Selden

The majority of the Ember community has been driving towards more complicated templates. I'm offering an alternative by bringing life back into Ember computed property macros. I'll brief over some theory like readability and separation of concerns, then I'll show off ember-awesome-macros; a plethora of macros at your disposal. I'll finish with how to build your own powerful, yet simple macros using ember-macro-helpers.

Deep Dive On Glimmer by Chad Hietala

Glimmer is a new rendering engine that powers Ember applications and paves the way for the future of Ember. In this talk we will take a deep dive into how Glimmer uses parsers, compilers, custom byte-code, and custom virtual machine to render your templates efficiently.
