To each their own. I tried learning Ember many times (due to my admiration/respect for Yehuda Katz), but it was always too confusing for me. Vue.js is what I use now, because it's the only front-end framework I was ever able to learn and use in real-world projects.


Yeah, this was just my personal story with it. I had a very specific goal for my first steps of development:

* Collect instance metadata from EC2 and store it in postgres.

* Collect Chef node data from a Chef API endpoint and store it in postgres.

* Return those collections to Ember to graph/put in a table/whatever.

I followed this guide for Rails 5 and Ember: https://emberigniter.com/modern-bridge-ember-and-rails-5-wit...

I had to pick and choose what it was showing since I wasn't building a book app.

It took some finagling to get everything working. One thing that confused me is that Ember resources get their own route and that wasn't explicitly stated (or maybe it was and I missed the text). So I kept trying to get `/instances` to render a table of instances but I would only get json back. I was super tired and up late at night but it didn't click that that route was bound to my resource and what was used to serve data. Whoopsy daisies.
