Ember is an MVC JavaScript framework that uses conventions over configurations to reduce boilerplate code. It features auto-updating Handlebars templates, reusable components, easy loading of data from servers, and routing capabilities to build multi-page apps with clean URLs. The document provides a high-level overview of Ember's key features and benefits for building client-side JavaScript applications.

4. WHAT EMBER IS
•
MVC client side JavaScript framework
•
Free, open source and always will be.
•
Convention over configuration (less boiler plate)

5. AUTO-UPDATING HANDLEBARS TEMPLATES
Ember makes Handlebars templates even better, by ensuring your HTML stays
up-to-date when the underlying model changes. To get started, you don't even
need to write any JavaScript.

6. COMPONENTS
Experience the future of the web platform today with Ember's components.
Components allow you to create your own application-specific HTML tags, using
Handlebars to describe their markup and JavaScript to implement custom
behavior.

7. LOADING DATA FROM A SERVER
Ember.js eliminates the boilerplate of displaying JSON retrieved from your server.
If you know how to use jQuery, you know how to fetch models in Ember.

8. ROUTING
Build JavaScript apps that don't break the web! Ember.js makes it downright
simple to create sophisticated, multi-page JavaScript applications with great URL
support, in a fraction of the code you'd write in other frameworks.

9. THAT’S ALL FOLKS.
