The pillars of Polaris

+

The Polaris edition of Ember is built upon these core concepts.

+ +

1. First-class TypeScript Support

+

Ember has embraced TypeScript as a first-class citizen next to JavaScript. In practice this means you can build apps using TypeScript without having to worry about incompatibility with external type definitions of Ember itself. As of version 5.1, Ember ships with built-in stable types. Read all about it and how to get started in the Stable TypeScript Types announcement post. Glint, the TypeScript-powered tooling for Glimmer templates, also shipped as a stable release after two years of public preview. For more information, read the Glint release blog post.

2. Template tag components

+

+ The template tag syntax is the new authoring format for components in Ember. It addresses some long-standing developer experience challenges with the current format, and incorporates community feedback. Improvements include: +

+ It also helps unlock the road to new capabilities such as code splitting in the future. See the ember-template-imports repository to get started today!

+ +

3. Embroider build system

+

Embroider is the next-generation build system for Ember apps. The goal is to compile Ember apps into spec-compliant, modern Javascript. This allows the integration with all the build tooling improvements seen in the wider JavaScript ecosystem.

+ +

4. Reactivity improvements

+

The Octane edition saw the introduction of auto-tracking which simplified the previous reactivity system, and made it more performant. Polaris introduces the concept of resources. This pattern is a general concept that extends beyond Ember or any framework. To learn about the framework-agnostic approach to universal reactivity, check out the Starbeam Project.
