By stepping through my rewrite of `ember-component-css`\, we'll uncover the basics of broccoli\, writing custom plugins\, persistent ou tputs\, and how to integrate these into ember-cli. \;\n \;\nAmbiti ous Design in the Age of Ambitious Web Apps \;\nby Chris Salvi \;\n \;\nFar too often we as developers/engineers strive to create am bitious apps with design being an afterthought in the ideation process. My discussion tonight is to argue for a world in which we can strive for ambition in both engineering and design\, to move away from blatant aes thetic plagiarism and to return to a sense of creativity within the art of structuring a site. \;\n \;\nThe Benefits\, Challenges and Tric ks of Accessing Your Information Without Bogging Down Your App \;\nb y Kyle Mellander \;\n \;\nWhat do you do when you have a relations hip with 1000+ related items? How do you handle complex relationships f rom the back-end? Let's face it\, accessing data on the front-end is ver y different from the back-end. It requires us to shift our thinking of h ow we want our data to be structured. We'll look at how Ember natively h andles those relationships and what you can do to find solutions for tho se complex data situations. \;\n \;\n*** \;\n \;\nSponsors&# 13\;\n \;\nAt CrowdCompass by Cvent\, we create awesome mobile event apps that increase attendee engagement and produce a strong return on in vestment. As the premier event app developer\, we provide mobile apps fo r conferences\, tradeshows\, meetings and events that range in size from 50 to 50\,000 attendees. \;\n \;\nHealthSparq helps people make smarter health care choices.
