Ember Freestyle is an Ember addon that allows you to quickly create a component explorer for your Ember app.
Documentation

- Ember CLI v3.24 or above

- Ember Auto Import v2 or above
ember-freestyle includes TypeScript types, and provides a template registry that can be imported from ember-freestyle/template-registry for Glint usage.
Installation
This installation process is opinionated in order to get you going quickly.
ember install ember-freestyleThis will do the following:
- Install the
ember-freestyleaddon itself - Add a
freestyletemplate in your app - Add a
freestylecontroller in your app
- Install the
Add
this.route('freestyle');to yourapp/router.jsfileNavigate to
/freestyle. You should now see something like:
All of the generated output is optional. If you don't want a freestyle route,
for example, feel free to get rid of it and add a freestyle-guide somewhere
else in your app.
You can use the freestyle-guide component anywhere you'd like in your app.
You can organize your components into multiple Freestyle guides if you want to.
You can even use the constituent components like freestyle-usage on their own.
Problems? No problem.
Hopefully the installation instructions got you off to a smooth, seamless start. If you have any problems, feel free to chat with us in the Ember Community Discord or open an issue. As always, PRs are welcome!
Excluding Ember Freestyle's Styles
If you want to exclude Ember Freestyle's styles, you can set the includeStyles
option to false in your ember-cli-build.js file:
// ember-cli-build.js
module.exports = function (defaults) {
const app = new EmberApp(defaults, {
'ember-freestyle': {
includeStyles: false,
},
};
};This might be useful in case you want to define your own styles or if you are
using ember-cli-sass and want to import Ember Freestyle's styles explicitly:
$FreestyleGuide-color--primary: #C70039;
$FreestyleGuide-color--accent: #DAF7A6;
@import 'ember-freestyle';Excluding Ember Freestyle from Your Production Build
We recommend excluding Ember Freestyle from production builds using Ember CLI's
addons.exclude option.
// ember-cli-build.js
const environment = process.env.EMBER_ENV;
const addonsToExclude = environment === 'production' ? ['ember-freestyle'] : [];
module.exports = function (defaults) {
const app = new EmberApp(defaults, {
addons: {
exclude: addonsToExclude,
},
};
};Using Ember Freestyle Within an Addon
You should include ember-freestyle in your devDependencies so that apps
using your addon will not include Ember Freestyle CSS and JavaScript in their
production builds.
In V2 addons
You will need to configure babel to run ember-freestyle's AST Transform in order to capture source code from Freestyle::Usage example blocks. For example:
// babel.config.mjs
import FreestyleTransform from 'ember-freestyle/lib/ast-transform.js';
export default {
plugins: [
// ...
[
'babel-plugin-ember-template-compilation',
{
targetFormat: 'hbs',
transforms: [FreestyleTransform],
},
],
// ...
],
};
