By, Jonathan Jackson With the "Path to 2.0" CFP EmberCLI was and is projected to become a first class citizen in the Ember world. And there was much joy. However, it placed a question mark on the Rails integration story. First we had globals, then ember-rails, then Ember App Kit. Just as a bead was being drawn on the proper way... EmberCLI. EmberCLI Rails is a new gem which facilitates an integration story we can love. Full stack testing (no "Air gap") simple installation Sustainability Configurable setup Potential for simple deployments Let's learn how easy integration can be.

The video titled 'Rails and EmberCLI: an integration love story' features Jonathan Jackson discussing the historical interaction between Rails and Ember.js at RailsConf 2015. Jonathan starts by introducing Ember.js, highlighting its MVC architecture and important aspects such as routing, models, views, and controllers, and explaining why it appeals to Rails developers. Key points outlined in the presentation include: - **Shared Foundations**: Both Rails and Ember emphasize conventions over configuration, allowing developers to quickly build applications without excessive micro-decisions. - **Common Terminology**: Despite some differences, the shared nomenclature between the two frameworks helps Rails developers transition to using Ember seamlessly. - **History of Integration**: Jackson navigates through the historical context of Rails and Ember integration, mentioning the initial usage of globals, the development of the Ember Rails gem, and the shift towards Ember App Kit. - **Emergence of Ember CLI**: He discusses the introduction of Ember CLI in 2014, which improved asset management and project structure, and how it positioned itself as a more robust tool compared to prior tools. - **Challenges of Integration**: The separation of concerns between Rails and Ember could complicate testing and deployment, leading to complexities in managing full-stack applications. - **Ember Rails Gem**: This gem serves as a lightweight interface, allowing for smooth operations between Rails and Ember without extensive interference. Through anecdotes and personal insights, Jonathan illustrates the importance of continuous improvement and active dialogue in integrating both technologies. He concludes by urging developers to consider how Ember CLI can be a cohesive part of their Rails applications, emphasizing integration's role in enhancing overall development workflows. In summary, the primary takeaway is the potential for productive collaboration between Rails and Ember, supported by a community-driven focus on usability and efficiency in development practices.
