<p>This is an interview from Full Stack Radio.</p> <blockquote><blockquote><p>In this episode, Adam talks with Sean Devine, host of the Ruby on Rails podcast. Sean gives Adam an introduction to building applications with Ember, and how it's different than the way you might sprinkle AngularJS into a mostly server-side app. They talk about why your Ember apps shouldn't be mixed in with your server-side code, and the advantages that come along with building a server-side API with no front end of it's own.</p></blockquote></blockquote> <p>Links for this episode:</p><ul><li><a href="http://fullstackradio.com/episodes/8" class="link" target="_blank">Full Stack Radio Episode 8</a><br /></li></ul><p><a href="http://toggle.pro">Toggle</a>: Quick and efficient solutions to technical problems using a global network of professionals carefully selected for each project.</p> <p><a href="http://codeship.io/5by5ruby">Codeship</a>: Continuous Delivery made simple.
