• The Octane vs Classic Cheat sheet is now an Ember app, thanks to @ijlee2's work! It uses Ember Code Snippets, ember-cli-deploy, GitHub Actions, and allows for future translations into other languages too. The app itself is deployed to GitHub pages. Previously, it was a vanilla HTML/JS app using Prism. (Topic suggestion added by @jenweber) - (:lock: @ijlee2)
