Final Project

Last reviewed on October 9, 2018

For the final project, you will develop a single page application with Ember and ember-cli-mirage on a topic of your choice. Here are the project requirements:

  • At least 4 routes
  • At least 1 GET, 1 POST, 1 PUT or PATCH, and 1 DELETE AJAX request. You don't have to use Ember Data, but it is highly recommended.
  • Use of Ember's loading and error substates. Change the timing property in Mirage to 1000 milliseconds (only for the development environment so that your tests don't take longer to run) so that I can easily see the loading states of your app.
  • There should be some sort of feedback to the user when forms are processing. For example, a Save button could change its display text from Save to Saving and then back to Save, similar to what we did in class. It doesn't have to following that user experience though.
  • Form validation. If a form is invalid, there should be error messages next to each field.
  • At least 1 reusable/generic component designed by you that adheres to the Data Down, Actions Up paradigm. This should not be any of the components we did together in class.
  • Each page has a unique title using ember-cli-document-title
  • Use of at least 1 addon of your choice that isn't one of the ones listed in these requirements
  • At least 5 application tests that cover all types of CRUD operations
  • At least 5 rendering tests. These should be a mixture of tests for helpers and components.
  • Cleanly formatted code. Don't just make the code work. Make it also easy to read. This includes proper indentation, consistent casing (camelCase is the JavaScript convention), consistent spacing, and readable variable and function names.
  • Your project should be styled so that it presents a good user experience and looks organized and professional. You are welcome to use libraries like Bootstrap. In fact, there is an addon that integrates Ember and Bootstrap together called ember-bootstrap.
  • Deployed to Surge.sh with ember-cli-surge
  • Travis CI integration with all tests passing and a status badge on your project's README

Projects will be graded based on overall complexity and user experience.
