Components

The following are rules and guidelines for developing components in Ember.js at Linkfire.

Named arguments

Always use named arguments when passing values to a component.

Example: You have a component that displays cool employees. It will display the employee name and their catchphrase like this:

{{cool-employees name=“Theo” catchphrase="Huh, oh, wait, wat"}}

Now, in the component you can access the named arguments like this:

Meet {{@name}}, his catchphrase is {{@catchphrase}}

instead of

Meet {{name}}, his catchphrase is {{catchphrase}}

This provides more clarity of the template and makes it very easy to see what is a named argument and what is not.
