  • 010: Reactive Modeling with Ember

    Today, it’s Frontside’s 10th podcast! We’re talking primarily about Reactive Modeling with Ember.

    On today’s episode, we’re diving further into Charles's blog post, and into seeing this as a new way of thinking about programming — each relationship as a network, and the values floating around within them. We also share an update on Brandon’s robot project and talk about speaking at RubyConf (even though we’re Javascript guys).

      • 007: The Ember Router (with Alex Matchneer)

        This week the Frontside nerds are joined by "Mr. Router" himself, Alex Matchneer.

        We discuss the benefits & pain of routing in client-side applications, using the Ember router without Ember, how Alex got into working on Ember core, and some OSS projects to keep an eye on.
