I love that ember is still going. It’s obviously not the number one choice these days, might never have been, but it represents approaches to frontend web dev that are very different from the standard so it’s always great to see the diversity of ideas out there.

Since an agent could write all the boilerplate needed, I wonder if that offers any more reason to choose Ember over other frameworks/libraries now

I loved ember for years. Even attended EmberConf in portland around 2015. In fact, I'm just weeks away from retiring my last ember codebase that was in production and worked great for a decade (but I haven't updated in 5 years, since I was unable to keep up with all the changes). But after years of the community dying the most slow and boring of deaths, and having an absolute nightmare needing to hire Ember consultants, I really soured on it.

It is the main reason I completely stick to the boring mainstream (like react) now, so I'm never again stuck between "nobody knows Ember" and "this one consultant is charging $28k a month cuz I'm competing with LinkedIn, Netflix, and Apple" and then am stuck with them implementing engines for fun and then I don't have the time to undo it months later - all left me wanting to flee.

Basically, left it for non-technical reasons, just practical "literally nobody except billion dollar companies use this, I've painted myself into a corner" reasons.

But I do have fond memories of building things with it, personally.
