What's new in EmberJS #16 15 Oct 2012
Sorry guys and gals, it’s been a couple of weeks since I last posted, been busy beta launching my new startup TradeGecko, now back to the scheduled programming.
Lot’s of big changes merged in the last few days, most newsworthy is the relationships-improvements branch of ember-data has been merged.
###Weekly Wrapup #16
Relationship Improvements
-
The
relationships-improvementsbranch of ember-data has been merged, this brings quite a few breakages along, particularly if you are modifying the defaults in any way. -
There’s a lot to see here, so I suggest you take a look at the new documentation. I’ll try and put together a migrating to ember-data V5 blog post in the next couple of weeks once I finish migrating my apps.
-
If you have any outstanding issues PR’s against ember-data please take the time to check they’re still relevant and update them against the latest changes.
