Getting setup with Ember in July 2016

Well I've spent a couple of hours now trying to set up a directory structure for Ember that's up to date, since by now this video is so far behind.

If I'm trying the latest version, I need to use HTMLbars but I cannot find how to do download it and include it in my HTML boilerplate for Ember.

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>  
    <title>Website Title</title>

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.css">

    <script src="libs/jquery-3.0.0.min.js"></script>
    <script src="libs/handlebars-v.1.3.0.js"></script>
    <script src="libs/ember1.7.0.js"></script>
    <script src="libs/ember-handlebars-loader-0.0.1.js"></script>

    <!---Link to Ember App --->
    <script src ="app.js"></script>
</head>

<body>

</body>
</html>

I've tried installing via npm, looking for the files on the GitHub Repo.... Anyone know where I might find it so I can include it? What's the Holy Grail for this? :)

Hey Jonathan,

I wouldn't try to learn EmberJS through that old course, if I were you. The latest EmberJS is significantly different and you'll be better off just following along with the guide on their site. You'll want to brush up on your ES6 syntax first, though.

Do you know, that does sound like a relief to me :)

The "completist" in me doesn't like not finishing courses I've started though haha

Should I set my heart on starting the new ECMAScript course when it comes out then? or go on to MEAN app course?

I've completed Mongo, Node, Express and Angular courses.

Honestly, a little ES6 goes a long way and since there exists a plurality of ES6 features that haven't been finalized yet, I would just find a resource like this one and skim through it. Though, it's not like it would hurt you to take that ES6 course when it comes out ;)
