sparkles-component

sparkles-component was an experimental addon created to explore how @glimmer/component style APIs could be implemented in Ember.js applications using existing public APIs available in Ember 3.4+. It served as a bridge for developers interested in the component patterns that would later become standard in the Ember ecosystem.

Key Features

• Glimmer Component API Exploration — Enabled experimentation with component APIs similar to what would become @glimmer/component.
• Public API Utilization — Built exclusively using Ember's existing public APIs, ensuring compatibility with Ember 3.4+.
• Transition Path — Provided early access to patterns that would later be standardized in Ember's component system.

Philosophy

The project was designed as a temporary exploration tool to help the Ember community experiment with and understand new component patterns before they were officially integrated into the framework.
