Ruby 4.0.0 7 months ago

Unfortunately, the type support is still useless. I abandoned Ruby for the same reason, and it is still relatively slow and eats a lot of memory.

Luckily, there is Ember.js, which provides the best developer and user experience for a decade now, with smooth and consistent update and improvements.

Still the best choice for huge, corporate frontend projects.

I actually really like to debug Ember.js code. Because of the source map, I always see my code as I wrote it and I know when I'm in the framework's code.

Clean, well written and modern framework, like Ember.js, which supports the developer and help to implement features much faster are great choice and you won't have those problems what were mentioned in the article.

Use great tool not the hyped one...

https://emberjs.com

It changed a lot and you don't have to use all the feature if you don't need it. React with data support, router, etc can be super big... and latest Ember without Ember Data and tree shaking is small, so you win a lot of developer time and money and you end up with a well maintainable code, which can be understand by others in the first day, because of conventions over configurations. ;) IMHO Ember.js is still the best option for frontend, especially if you build a serious Web Application.

React.js is a library, so you don't get any magic and support from this tool... you have to be very advance in programming to develop a nice app with React.

Angular and Ember are real frameworks, they support all aspect of a Frontend Application, so you can learn more concept if you start using them.

One of the best tutorial for Ember.js is https://yoember.com where you can learn it from scratch.

Actually, Ember.js gives you the same experience for frontend development than Rails for backend. So you can stay happy and productive. ;)

Same question here. Is this the honest reality nowadays, that only one frontend library/framework became "the standard"? It looks to me, that React is "the winner" and most of us should focus on this, because others just come and goes... Is that true?

I'm a big fun of the latest GMail and of the modern Google Map. I think, their changes are usually based on thorough UX research. It is normal, there are a strong minority, who cannot get used to new user interfaces and cannot accept changes... Luckily there are alternative services, so they can use something else. ;)

The best if you learn and practice the following four libraries and frameworks: React, Ember.js, Angular, Vue. You will see different concepts and you gonna be a real professional frontend dev. For example, you can create a simple interface or widget with React, but if you have to develop a complex big web application, Ember or Angular is a better choice. Most of these frameworks have great support, community and matured. Learning Ember is so easy as React: http://yoember.com

I just don't understand this hype around vue.js. People say, one of the best feature of vue that it is somehow opinionated, howevever it has weird templating syntax.

The conclusion is simple again. There is only one framework left which is "rule them all", opinionated, super easy to use, with beautiful templating language, an fast. Fast rendering, fast for building apps, and the only with continous consistency. It is Ember.js. Obviously.
