Software Productivity and Ember: Ember CLI
summary
Ember CLI centralizes the build and scaffolding work so app glue stops being a recurring liability, it uses Broccoli as a dedicated pipeline that handles fast incremental builds (one demo hits 20,000 files in ~1s), and it migrates Ember App Kit lessons into a stable toolchain (App Kit logged 572 commits 71 contributors 519 closed issues in nine months while Ember CLI records 273 commits 28 committers 131 closed issues in a month). Test support lands, fingerprinting is missing, upgrade pain remains but the CLI already works end to end.
