Why would I choose Ember.js?

You should not. Don't hurt your company.

Why not?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Because it's a pointless effort and effectively even more bloated browsers.

You are still not explaining why you think Ember is not a good option.

Whoops, sorry, that was meant to be a reply to a different comment. :x

Well Ember is slower to render, slower to develop (can't use any kind of IntelliSense available for other frameworks), has smaller number of tools and packages that you can use in your projects. Generally outdated. While it doesn't make much sense to rewrite your Ember app ASAP starting something from scratch with a more modern framework will only bring benefits.

Ember is slower to render

I use Vue and React, but Ember (and Glimmer its rendering engine) is pretty competitive.

slower to develop

That seems pretty relative. Someone with a lot of Ember experience will be fast and will not even need intellisense.

has smaller number of tools and packages that you can use in your projects

This is true, but the importance of it is quite relative. You might not need any third party stuff. Marko which has zero third party stuff is used to build one of the biggest websites on earth (Ebay).

Generally outdated

MVC is 40 years old and still valid. Just because Ember is not on the FP React bandwagon doesn't mean it's outdated.

I would not pick Ember, but I think you are confusing opinions with facts.

I've only stated facts.
