I’m a UI developer and have been working with React for the past few years now. I’m interested in trying out LinkedIn but I heard it’s full of core Ember people there. Is it true that you will have to use Ember for any Front End UI project there? (...surely someone is going to say things about React and Facebook...) TC 200k, 3 YOE
You don't need to know before you start. But day to day it is 100% ember for web.
But what school you're from tho ?
Why? A UC school
Do people really love it for what it is, or all the resistance have been suppressed for job’s sake? All these core members are either staff or sr staff level or even higher. Wtf?? If I become a core member of Ember, will it be easier for me to get hired at LinkedIn?
There are split opinions, but there are definitely people who love it. At staff+, you’ll need solid evidence before you can influence the whole organization. Most people that want React just don’t have that kind of deep expertise to make a stand. Plus, even the migration to Ember is not complete. Some of the even older systems are on dust. Glimmer existed as a library because Ember wasn’t able to fill all the gaps in dust.
Against Tom Dale? Seem losing before even trying...lol
I’m not going to mention F. But Amazon, Microsoft, Netflix, and Apple all currently use React. Not throughout the whole company but there are teams using it. To rewrite the whole thing at LinkedIn doesn’t make sense. But it’s obviously quite a lone wolf situation here. The only other big name that uses Ember is Square.
And Apple
and CrowdStrike, since they were in the news recently 👀 Netflix too
I used to love Ember, have known a bunch of core team folks. Stopped using it because no one uses ember anymore. It’s enjoyable to learn but not a super transferable skill, so I can see why it would be a turn off. But, I can only imagine you will get tons of support along the way, and start to feel productive in a couple of months. Would not make this a deciding factor for accepting / declining the offer. Ember is a lot of fun, it’s just not super popular anymore because it never had a big name behind it.
Yeah I can relate to that. I had to work on top of a framework in yahoo which I don’t like at all
Not completely true. There are many teams which are using React. I have also built stuff on React, though still most of the teams are still using Ember. Since MS is also pushing React, I think eventually React will be more widely adopted. The few Ember engineer i know they hate it.
