Congratulations to our @chris.manson.ie who recently joined the W3C Web Frameworks Community Group! The WFCG is a collaboration with front-end-framework authors to see what could be lifted into HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. We’re excited to see what this brings for the open ecosystem!

Oh and I have a guest with me today! @pichfl.bsky.social is helping me figure out some designs for a new side project!

It’s time for our first #EmberEurope meetup of 2026!

Thu, March 26, 2026 | 19:00 CEST (Zoom opens at 18:45). We’re happy to welcome the speakers David Taylor, Preston Sego and @chris.manson.ie! There will also be an open Q&A session at the end.

Are there any Ember folks on there? We have a new syntax that should be generalisable for all frameworks that were considering hitting the standards circuit with and I would be cool to chat about it

@medium.com it is totally not acceptable that you need to be logged in to report a post or user.

I have discovered someone trying to get people to echo a base64 encoded script directly into zsh and I want to report them.

I will not be setting up an account to do so. How should I proceed?

Looks like @github.com is having a case of the Mondays.

No work for us today 🎉😎🍸

Ember Europe The Ember.js Europe meetup brings together the Ember community from all of Europe once a quarter*. The meetup is organized as a hybrid event, hosted from a different city each time with the option for...

While we're working on the new Router RFC for @emberjs.com we're discovering some super strange APIs that I have never seen or heard of before 🙈

Pop quiz: have you ever seen the `@current-when` argument to the LinkTo component? and (without looking at any docs) can you tell me how it works?

Ember Initiative: How pairing sessions are growing the Ember community - Mainmatter A Post describing how the Ember Initiative pairing sessions our team attends with members benefit the entire Ember community

The Ember Initiative pairing sessions benefit the entire ecosystem. In this blog post, Marine walks us through the day-to-day problems that are being turned into opportunities to support the community, and how they translate into actual improvements.

Great example of the @emberjs.com community starting to experiment with what is possible now that we're on @vite.dev by default 🎉

The Ember plugin for @astro.build is live on the Integrations Library 🚀

Excited to see what you'll build!

Yea post-install scripts in a "download and run" situation sounds pretty scary 😬 I hadn't considered the impact of the new pnpm defaults on pnpx

I mean... The reasons aren't that far from being known 🙈 if there is an ongoing supply chain attack while you run you're just poned 🫠 pnpx can be great but it's a sharp tool in the current climate.

... But still nobody should be using npx 😜

Looks like you have a few yarn and npm projects to still port to pnpm 😏

But yea I have a very similar problem, had to nuke my caches this week because I was actually running out of disk space 🫠

Play sound, when Github CI is done I often need to wait until Github CI is done. I see "N in progress": After the is done I need to do additional steps like merging the PR and incorporate the change in other tools. I tried

OMG I have found the perfect solution to let me go and do something else while I'm waiting for long CI runs to complete 😍🎉

`gh run watch; say github done`

So nice ❤️

I found this in an asked-and-answered stackoverflow question that deserves more upvotes: stackoverflow.com/questions/79...

I don't know who needs to hear this today but here it is:

Stop using npx! I just had to use it to debug an issue and it's soooooooooo sloooooooooow 😫

Want something fast? use pnpx 🎉 And it doesn't take up all your disk space because of the shared store 😍

but after working through the quirks we succeeded in getting the legacy store working with all the models and one schema 🎉 this is a pretty exciting moment for the code base and hopefully we can follow up with a lot more of the migration in the new year 💪

To be honest, there was nothing major on the warp-drive side that was actually wrong 🤷 it's just a tough thing to keep all the parts of a migration like this in your head at one time. Plus we hit a few quirks of the system that we can for sure upstream into the docs to help other people ✍️

we made quite a lot of progress in our 2-hour session, migrating to the legacyStore with little impact to the application. Then we tackled migrating a model to a schema to see what the migration process would look like... and this is where the road got a little bumpy 🫣

They are already using @vite.dev for all of the Ember apps, all of their templates have been GTS for years, and this week we started the @warp-drive.io migration of their models 💪

Employee Student Loan Benefits | Workforce Tuition Assistance Support Tuition.io provides top-tier Education Assistance Benefits, helping employers reduce workforce financial stress through tuition assistance and loan coaching.

On Monday I had a great session with tuition.io as part of the @mainmatter.com Ember Initiative. I've been working with their talented engineer Cory for months to get them onto the most modern @emberjs.com best practices, and even pushing the boundaries of what that means for the whole community 🎉

WIP vite core build · discourse/discourse@3d7060b A platform for community discussion. Free, open, simple. - WIP vite core build · discourse/discourse@3d7060b

And to add icing to this particular Vite flavoured cake: because Discourse is open source you can just follow along the work that we're doing together and see for yourself how many of the tests are passing: github.com/discourse/di...

by the end of the session we got to a point where the tests are at least running in CI, and more than 95% of them pass! This is a great signal for how far we have come and how close we are to shipping this 🎉

after a few false starts and "what is going on" moments, we managed to unravel some of the legacy test boot code that isn't needed any more when you are building your Ember app with Vite 😍 Not having to think about the black-box of ember-cli really simplifies your architecture

I had yet another fantastic pairing session with @discourse.org yesterday as part of the @mainmatter.com Ember Initiative 🎉 Most of our sessions are about the finer details of the @vite.dev migration, this week we were finally trying to get tests running in CI to see how far we are from the goal 💪

The AI art is strong with this one 🤣

Next up on EmberEurope we have Brendan Farquharson from Vectra talking about upgrading their @emberjs.com app

This talk is really good because it goes through all the things you need to be careful about when you're building an Ember app to be embedded somewhere else!

I'll have to get the videos out soon so y'all can follow along!
