Preface

Ember.js is a frontend MVC JavaScript framework that runs in the browser. It is for developers who are looking to build ambitious and large web applications that rival native applications. Ember.js was created from concepts introduced by native application frameworks, such as Cocoa. Ember.js helps you to create great experiences for the user. It will help you to organize all the direct interactions a user may perform on your website. A common use case for Ember.js is when you believe your JavaScript code will become complex; when the code base becomes complex, problems about maintaining and refactoring the code base will arise.

MVC stands for model-view-controller. This kind of structure makes it easy to make modifications or refactor changes to any part of your code. It will also allow you to adhere to Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) principles. The model is responsible for notifying associated views and controllers when there has been a change in the state of the application. The controller sends CRUD requests to the model to notify it of a change in state. It can also send requests to the view to change how the view is representing the current state of the model. The view will then receive information from the model to create a graphical rendering.

If you are still unclear on how the three parts interact with each other, the following is a simple diagram illustrating this:

Emberjs decouples the problematic areas of your frontend enabling you to - photo 2

Ember.js decouples the problematic areas of your frontend, enabling you to focus on one area at a time without worrying about affecting other parts of your application. To give you an example of some of these areas of Ember.js, take a look at the following list:

  • Navigation : Ember's router takes care of your application's navigation
  • Auto-updating templates : Ember view expressions are binding-aware, meaning they will update automatically if the underlying data ever changes
  • Data handling : Each object you create will be an Ember object, thus inheriting all Ember.object methods
  • Asynchronous behavior : Bindings and computed properties within Ember help manage asynchronous behavior

Ember.js is more of a framework than a library. Ember.js expects you to build a good portion of your frontend around its methodologies and architecture, creating a solid application architecture once you are finished with it. This is the main difference between Ember and a framework like Angular.js. Angular allows itself to be incorporated into an existing application, whereas an Ember application would have had to have been planned out with its specific architecture in mind. Backbone.js would be another example of a library that can easily be inserted into existing JavaScript projects. Ember.js is a great framework for handling complex interactions performed by users in your application. You may have been led to believe that Ember.js is a difficult framework to learn, but this is false. The only difficulty for developers lies in understanding the concepts that Ember.js tries to implement.
