Submit your questions for the Ember Framework AMA, Feb 4th 🙋‍♀️

On February 4th at 2 pm Eastern Time, the Ember.js Framework team will livestream some community questions and answers. Would you like to submit a question or two?

Use the Ember Times reader question form, bit.ly/ask-ember-core. "AMA" stands for "ask me anything - the team would love to hear what you are wondering about!

Livestream details will be posted on the Ember.js Twitter. The session will be recorded and published online, so if you miss the livestream, don't sweat it.

RFC: Add Ember Cookbook 🍳

Ketaki Deo (@ketakideo) opened an RFC to add a cookbook section to our learning resources that will help Ember developers to learn maintainable, accessible patterns for common tasks.

Today, the Ember docs are missing how-to guides that would provide goal-oriented answers and patterns to common problems Ember developers face on a daily basis. This used to be available in v1.12 but was removed in v1.13.

These types of content exist today in the form of blogs, stackoverflow answers and efforts like Ember Atlas but they are not discoverable and can sometimes be incorrect. The proposed Ember Cookbook will be managed and curated by the Ember Learning team which will work closely with the Ember Core team on upgrades to add, modify or delete information as needed.

Read, comment, and discuss this proposal in the RFC on Github!

Ember.js Triaging Office Hours 📚

@locks, a member of the Framework and Learning core teams, has started weekly office hours for anyone that was to help triage issues and pull requests on Ember core projects, like ember.js, ember-cli, ember-data, and many others. If you want to learn how to reproduce bugs, learn how to figure out if issues are still relevant, or you want to help Ember keep their project tidy, join locks at the #issue-triage channel of Ember's Discord every Thursday at 15h GMT.

Ember v4 TypeScript Support Update ✨

If you didn't notice, there's a new blog post by Chris Krycho (@chriskrycho) on the Ember blog about support for TypeScript in Ember 4.x!

The Typed Ember team has provided a ton of great detail on the latest in using TypeScript in Ember so go give the post a read today!

Pass me the remote - meetup recordings about V2 addon format and teaching Ember 📹

With the new year and a new major version of Ember, remote events are in full swing, with recordings available so that Ember developers around the world can participate.

Earlier this month, the Boston Ember Community meetup gathered remotely to learn about V2 addon formats and how Ember is a great tool for teaching junior developers. Check out the videos!
