Ember.js continues to be an antidote to the insane front-end ecosystem.

Let this book convince you it's worth building your next rich web application with Ember.js!

What You'll Get

This book will help you get ready to start tackling advanced and complex Ember projects out in the wild.

The Ember way
While going through logically sequnced chapters narrated by the natural progression of building a real-life web application, you'll learn all about the Ember's concepts and structures that are used in every Ember application.
Build a real product
We're building a simple expense tracking application with a great authentication mechanism, which you can re-use to jump-start your next ambitious web app.
Tips and tricks
This book is filled with helpful advice, production tips, insights on Ember's future developments, common mistakes, what-ifs, and links to credible up-to-date resources.
Full-stack code
You'll get a fully configured back-end API written in Ruby on Rails providing OAuth2 authentication and JSON API. For your convenience, there is also a deployed cloud API available.

Just wanted to let you know that your book helped and continues to help me a lot. I love how you go into detail about how one could go about doing something incorrectly then provide steps on how to solve those problems. The book’s knowledge assisted the development of a school district’s portal which gets hundreds of thousands of hits.

Tired of insane JavaScript madness and dealing with build tools and configurations that don't really matter in the whole scheme of things?

With Ember.js we've reached a plateau and finally found the right way to do web applications.

What I like the most in the book is the excellent ratio of text, pictures and code which all together gives a great overview of Ember.js. Definitely recommended.
