The Ember Times - Issue No. 183

– By Chris Ng, Amy Lam

👋 Emberistas! 🐹

New release of Unstable Ember Language Server, share code snippets on Twitter using Ember, the difference between ember serve and npm run start, and an addon roundup!


Release of uELS v2.0.16 ✅

Unstable Ember Language Server is a fully featured fork of Ember Language Server. While the name says unstable it actually has been stable and ready to use for day-to-day development!

Thanks to both Alex LaFroscia (@alexlafroscia) and Alex Kanunnikov (@lifeart) for new version release which provides:

  • Support workspace/didChangeConfiguration event
  • Improved startup speed by delaying template tokenization
  • Autocomplete now use global registry and file change events, not fs lookup, but we still do fs lookup on project initialization
  • Added template-lint severity support
  • Improved template-linting speed

Try out uELS today:

The difference between ember serve and npm run start 🖥

Jesse Jordan (@jayjayjpg) blogged about some subtle differences between npm run start and ember serve, inspired by this question on StackOverflow. Even when using nvm, there can be some dependency gotchas with globally installed packages. Check out Jesse's dev.to post for more info.
