Ember.js Programming: From Beginner to Developer: 3-in-1

Ever wanted to take your web development skills to the next level? Well then, this is the Learning Path for you! Ember.js is currently one of the hot, new, open source JavaScript-based web frameworks that has taken the world by storm, and is now being used by companies such as Apple, Yahoo!, LinkedIn and Netflix. It makes use of powerful data-binding features, provides efficient client-side rendering and structure to scalable web applications, and works smoothly with large application ecosystems. With its motto of ‘Convention over Configuration’, Ember.js and similar frameworks are rightly considered as the future of web development.

In this comprehensive 3-in-1 course, you will start from the basics of Ember.js. You will be taught about some key aspects of Ember.js, including topics such as Ember templates, Ember router, and the Ember CLI. You will then progress to more advanced topics relating to working with Ember components and controllers, and handlebars. Finally, you will learn how to embed Ember with other JavaScript frameworks, as well as concepts such as fastboot, which provides a progressive enhancement mechanism for Ember apps, through server-side rendering. The approach used is quite hands-on and aims to provide the learner with a very practical knowledge of Ember.js.

This training program includes 3 complete courses, carefully chosen to give you the most comprehensive training possible.

The first course, Building Web Applications with Ember, begins with setting up development environment for Ember.js. You will then explore templates (Ember uses the handlebars library as the default templating engine) and implement conditionals, links, and actions. You will also write your own helpers to customize your view layer. Next, you will be glanced through Ember data and will create all the necessary models. You will explore the various adapters that are available to connect with various backend/API servers. Finally, you will set up components and acquire a deeper understanding of this important Ember construct.

In the second course, Test Driven Web Application Development with Ember, you will learn to define complex relationships in Ember to build an application that will allow customers to browse products in a web-shop. The application will allow your customers to search categories for their preferred products, compare products, add them to their shopping cart, and then place them in an order list. You will then implement various functionalities and understand how to set up cross-sell/up-sell type modules.

The third course, Application Development with Advanced Ember, starts off with explaining you the concept of promises and how to use them effectively in your applications. You will then learn to set up handlers when the promises are fulfilled as well as when they are rejected. Next, you will learn how to develop Ember addons and using engines in Ember. Finally, you will learn embedding Ember with other JavaScript frameworks, as well as concepts like fastboot, which provides a progressive enhancement mechanism for Ember apps, through server-side rendering.

By the end of this Learning Path, you would have mastered Ember.js to such an extent that you would be well-equipped to seamlessly work with and create web applications powered by Ember.js.

We have the best work of the following esteemed author(s) to ensure that your learning journey is smooth:

• Arlston Fernandes has been developing web applications in Ruby, PHP, and JavaScript for the past 6 years. He started using Ember to port a large application from Rails and has been working with Ember for the last 2 years now. He is interested in Haskell and Elixir and is familiar with web development in Ruby and PHP. Currently, he runs a software consultancy, ArkeCode Pvt Ltd, in Goa, India. Apart from software, he also enjoys playing the guitar and violin, and long drives. In his experience with Ember, he found that resources are few and far between, and many of them expect quite a jump from newcomers. Through this course, he would like to bridge that gap and allow newer developers to become productive with Ember faster.
