Similar to @s_kilk I tried ember years ago and while I liked some of their concepts, the hard learning curve and the oversized results made me search alternatives.
Anybody knows what size (js bundle file size) a basic PWA in ember.js has nowadays?
I am asking for file size here, as transmitting and parsing that data is usually what defers an instant user interaction.
- sandstrom 8y agoIf fast bootup is critical, look at Ember Fastboot. https://www.ember-fastboot.com/ https://www.ember-fastboot.com/ It will deliver a minimum HTML-payload to quickly render a page, then subsequently load the data required to boot the full app after the page has loaded. The net effect is that page transitions/loading will be more or less instant.
- anoncoward778 8y agoKeep in mind. Ember is built for LARGE applications. No such thing as a "basic PWA" in ember.js. Think of it more like...we've built this huge app for tons of users in library XYZ and our development team of over 20 persons is feeling pain points in transitioning to the updated more secure version of XYZ.
- msum 8y agoI really enjoyed the EmberConf talk about movie studios using it for movie promo sites because they needed to be able to get them up quickly. I think if you took that concept and maybe a blog post about doing an Ember PWA (https://madhatted.com/2017/6/16/building-a-progressive-web-app-with-ember https://madhatted.com/2017/6/16/building-a-progressive-web-a... for example) then maybe the large part doesn't matter so much...
