April Meetup: Talks from Erik Bryn, Andy Leeper and others

We're delighted to welcome Ember core team member Erik Bryn and contributor Andy Leeper, both in town from San Francisco.

Erik Bryn will discuss Ember.ListView

You've heard of big data, but have you heard of big DOM? Erik will talk about Ember.ListView, which is a performant solution for rendering large result sets and using the DOM effectively. This is one of the most common challenges for Ember apps, so you'll want to pay close attention to this one.

Andy Leeper will speak on Understanding Ember Arrays

Did you know that Ember has a handful of APIs focused around array manipulation? Andy will talk about some of these APIs and also talk about how he built an array manipulation mixin -- ArrayPipeline.

Lightning talks:
