Today the Ember project is releasing version 5.10 of Ember.js and Ember CLI. Following Ember's Major Version Policy, 5.10 is the last release of the 5.x series that will have deprecations targeting 6.0. Version 5.12 in September will be the final release of the 5.x series.
This release kicks off the 5.11 beta cycle for all sub-projects. We encourage our community (especially addon authors) to help test these beta builds and report any bugs before they are published as a final release in six weeks' time. The ember-try addon is a great way to continuously test your projects against the latest Ember releases.

Ember.js
Ember.js is the core framework for building ambitious web applications.
Changes in Ember.js 5.10
Ember.js 5.10 is an incremental, backwards compatible release of Ember with bug fixes, performance improvements, and minor deprecations.
Bug fixes
Ember.js 5.10 introduced 2 bug fixes.
- #20683 - Remove application-template-wrapper optional feature support as Ember has thrown since 4.0 with the feature enabled.
- #20685 - Remove support for non-glimmer template-only components as this optional feature became mandatory at 4.0.
Features
Ember.js 5.10 introduced no new features.
While there were no new features there was an exciting internal update to the Ember.js test suite, which now builds with Vite, with no AMD loader present. Which ensures that Ember is strictly following the ES module spec. Additionally, these changes also makes Ember's prepublication build use Rollup instead of a custom broccoli pipeline.
Deprecations
Ember.js 5.10 introduced 2 deprecations:
- #20660 - deprecate non-colocated component template resolution per RFC #995.
- #20702 - deprecate array prototype extensions per RFC #848.
For more details on changes in Ember.js 5.10, please review the Ember.js 5.10.0 release page.
EmberData
EmberData is the official data persistence library for Ember.js applications.
This release cycle EmberData is again electing to not release a new minor.
Work in the library continues to be focused primarily on aligning 4.12 and 5.3 to enable as many folks in the community to seamlessly upgrade as possible.
We continue to take our time with 5.4 as we intend to introduce a major new paradigm with it (the replacement for @ember-data/model) and believe releasing this new feature at once on the heels of two very robust LTSs (4.12 and 5.3) is the best approach for users looking to navigate upgrades easily.
Please see the blog post addressing EmberData's new versioning strategy for more information.
Ember CLI
Ember CLI is the command line interface for managing and packaging Ember.js applications.
Upgrading Ember CLI
You may upgrade Ember CLI using the ember-cli-update project:
npx ember-cli-update
This utility will help you to update your app or addon to the latest Ember CLI version. You will probably encounter merge conflicts, in which the default behavior is to let you resolve conflicts on your own. For more information on the ember-cli-update project, see the GitHub README.
It is not required to keep Ember CLI versions in sync with Ember and EmberData. After updating ember-cli, you can keep your current version(s) of Ember or EmberData by editing package.json to revert the changes to the lines containing ember-source and ember-data.
