Support for in/inter page linking / scrolling in EmberJS
Navigating to URLs with #hash-targets in them is not supported by most single-page-app frameworks due to the async rendering nature of modern web apps -- the browser can't scroll to a #hash-target on page load / transition because the element hasn't rendered yet. There is an issue about this for Ember here on the RFCs repo.
- 🎉 The JS representation of Template Tag has moved to Final Comment Period! This RFC coincidentally exposes a much nicer runtime compiler API! (so I'm interested in this for my REPL, tutorial, and docs sites)
- Official support for pnpm has moved to Final Comment Period -- soon you won't have to add `--skip-npm` and other dances when wanting to use `pnpm` with Ember.

The road from Ember classic to Glimmer components
Ember.js development doesn’t stagnate. Progress is already being made for new improvements to the current component model. The RFC for first-class component templates has been accepted and merged in 2022 and will provide new benefits to Ember users. By first adopting Glimmer components, we’re prepared for what’s coming next.

"Why would I use Ember over Vue?" or "Are my impressions of the framework landscape based at all in current fact?"
yeah, I think that's being designed (for runtime).We have build-time efforts / validation already via official typescript support https://github.com/emberjs/rfcs/pull/748 with Glint: https://typed-ember.gitbook.io/glint/

[AskJS] What's your opinion about React 18 and do you feel the framework is at the forefront of innovation compared to Vue, Angular, Ember, Meteor, Mithril, Polymer and the others... is it going the right way for you or you would have changed a few things ?
During the 4.x series, we aim to finish the work to officially support TypeScript.

TypeScript Features to Avoid
The latest versions of Ember.js (Octane) have built-in decorator support and they're discussed in the RFC:

At ok, legit. that's like a modifier from ember.

Real talk: Did I make a mistake choosing Ember for my app?
have you seen: https://github.com/emberjs/rfcs/pull/779? I think that addresses the "where does this come from?" in completion.

Vercel Welcomes Rich Harris, Creator of Svelte
What I like about Ember is that it gives a lot of rigid structure that, at least at one point, made it comparatively easy to work on multiple Ember based projects and be productive sooner.
As you've pointed out, a problem with that project is that there's a ton of intimate knowledge for how things work under the hood or why things are the way they are. They also seem to oscillate between opting for simplicity and opting for complexity and magic.
One example would be the latest version of Ember which doesn't even ship with `@ember/render-modifiers` by default despite how everyone will end up installing it anyway because it's necessary; they were talking about providing an alternative based on the actor model, despite modifiers being far easier to understand, somehow they are still wrong:
> Either way, we recommend using these modifiers with caution. They are very useful for quickly bridging the gap between classic components and Glimmer components, but they are still generally an anti-pattern.
https://github.com/emberjs/ember-render-modifiers
Why on earth did they reinvent components and ship them without providing the supposedly correct way of interacting with their lifecycle? You actually have to install a separate add-on to develop a production-ready app with Ember, which completely flies in the face of the idea that you can run `ember new` and have pretty much everything you need.
Strangely (an thankfully), the RFC for the needlessly complicated alternative for lifecycle interaction is effectively stalled:
https://github.com/emberjs/rfcs/pull/567
By their own language, the only official way to interact with component/element lifecycle is an antipattern.

⚛️ Explaining React's Types
Prior to React 18, it used to include an implicit children prop, making it suitable for components expected to have children. For a long time, though, the implicit children prop type has been removed according to React 18's type changes.

Introduction to TypeScript — What is TypeScript?
Additionally, because TypeScript has a well established and widely used install-base, there are already many different definition files in the wild for supporting non-TypeScript supporting projects. One of the more extensive collections of these typings lives at the DefinitelyTyped repository, which publishes the package's community typings under the package names @types/your-package-name (where your-package-name is the name of the project you're looking for typings of) that you can look for on your package manager.

Declaring JSX types in TypeScript 5.1
The TypeScript pull request was merged, so Sebastian (who helps maintain the React type definitions) exercised new powers in this pull request to the DefinitelyTyped repository for the React type definitions. At the time of writing, this pull request is still open, but once merged and shipped the React community we will feel its benefits.
