Today, we are pleased to announce the release of Ember Data 0.13.
Ember Data 0.13 is the first official release of Ember Data. This should
make it easier for people to synchronize Ember.js and Ember Data
versions, and make reasoning about the upgrade process much easier.
Announcement
We have noticed a performance regression, a debug flag was left on by mistake. So if you really want the goodness of RC4 without this regression use this build, we'll have an official release out soon.
Today, we are pleased to announce Ember.js 1.0 RC4:
This RC4 release of Ember puts us very close to the final 1.0 release.
A month ago, we told you about our plans for stabilizing Ember
Data. I'd like
to give you an update on the status of those efforts.
First, though, I'd like to thank everyone who has been contributing to Ember
Data. As an open source project, a healthy, active community is our
lifeblood. In particular, I want to call out Igor Terzic, Stefan Penner,
Paul Chavard and Gordon Hempton for going above and beyond the call of
duty.
Today we are announcing the third Release Candidate of Ember 1.0.
As we said when we released RC1, all releases until 1.0 is final
will be about bugfixes and improvements, and should not have any
breaking changes.
Performance
Since RC2, a series of performance improvements have landed.
We know that building your apps on top of a framework requires
trust, and that trust is never put to the test more than when security
vulnerabilities are discovered.
While we're very fortunate to work on an open source project that runs
in a sandboxed environment, the browser, we realize that even JavaScript
applications can be vulnerable to attacks from malicious third-parties.
Today, we're releasing the second Release Candidate of Ember 1.0.
As we said when we released RC1, the next few releases will be
about bugfixes and improvements, and should not have any breaking
changes.
Namespace Lookup for Controllers
It is now possible to look up controllers that are included in a
namespace other than the main application namespace.
For example, when using the render helper:
Yesterday, we gave you an update on our progress making Ember.js easier
to use. One thing we didn't discuss was our plan for Ember Data.
It's no secret that, while many developers are building awesome apps
with Ember.js, Ember Data still causes lots of frustration due to bugs
and a changing, complex API. Documentation about it is also mixed in
with Ember.js documentation, making it difficult for new developers to
understand what is stable and what is not.
We frequently receive feedback from new developers about how frustrating
it can be to get started with Ember. Yesterday, one of the most active
comment threads on Hacker
News was largely about that.
We hear you loud and clear. Ember.js is not easy to get started with, and we take that very seriously. We are all working nights and weekends to make the framework as approachable as humanly possible.
Today at Ember Camp, we announced the release of Ember.js 1.0 RC1.
This release is all about fixing bugs from the pre4
release, and
gets us that much closer to a final 1.0 release. Between this release
and the 1.0 final, we will mostly be focusing on stability and documentation.
If you discover any blocking bugs or undocumented areas, please file tickets at
the emberjs/ember.js repo on GitHub and consider helping out.
