What is ember-source?
The ember-source package is the core framework for Ember.js, a JavaScript framework for building ambitious web applications. It provides a robust set of tools and conventions for building scalable and maintainable web applications.
What are ember-source's main functionalities?
Routing
Ember's routing system allows you to map URLs to routes, which are responsible for loading the data and rendering the templates. This example demonstrates how to define a route that fetches all 'post' records from the store.
import Route from '@ember/routing/route';
export default class MyRoute extends Route {
model() {
return this.store.findAll('post');
}
}
Components
Components in Ember are reusable UI elements that can have their own state and logic. This example shows a simple component that computes a full name from first and last name arguments.
import Component from '@glimmer/component';
export default class MyComponent extends Component {
get fullName() {
return `${this.args.firstName} ${this.args.lastName}`;
}
}
Services
Services in Ember are singleton objects that can be used to share state and behavior across different parts of the application. This example demonstrates a simple authentication service.
import Service from '@ember/service';
export default class MyService extends Service {
isLoggedIn = false;
login() {
this.isLoggedIn = true;
}
logout() {
this.isLoggedIn = false;
}
}
Other packages similar to ember-source
react
React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces. Unlike Ember, React is more flexible and allows developers to choose their own libraries for routing, state management, and other functionalities. React focuses on the component-based architecture and provides a virtual DOM for efficient updates.
vue
Vue.js is a progressive JavaScript framework for building user interfaces. It is similar to Ember in that it provides a comprehensive solution for building web applications, including routing and state management. However, Vue is more flexible and easier to integrate into existing projects.
angular
Angular is a platform and framework for building single-page client applications using HTML and TypeScript. It provides a complete solution with built-in tools for routing, state management, and form handling. Angular is more opinionated and structured compared to Ember.
Ember.js is a JavaScript framework that greatly reduces the time, effort and resources needed
to build any web application. It is focused on making you, the developer, as productive as possible by doing all the common, repetitive, yet essential, tasks involved in most web development projects.
Ember.js also provides access to the most advanced features of JavaScript, HTML and the Browser giving you everything you need to create your next killer web app.
