Setting up Ember.js: I get a warning in console "WARNING: Please use `ember.debug.js` instead of `ember.js` ... "

While setting up Ember.js I am getting the following warning in Chrome console:

WARNING: Please use ember.debug.js instead of ember.js for development and debugging.

What should be the appropriate action to take?

I had a similar problem when I started the Ember videos. They're a little hard to follow becomes Ember has since come to rely heavily on Ember-CLI (the Ember Command Line Interface). It's possible you're missing a configuration file that Ember expects to be there that wasn't needed at the time of the video. You can get Ember-CLI by looking at the install instructions on Ember's main page. It even shows you how to set-up a new app with:

ember new yourAppName

This creates a new folder named "yourAppName" with all of your basic set-up files and directory structure in place. You can then follow along with the video normally. It might be a little different, but everything is sorted the same way and if you poke around in the directories you won't have any trouble finding anything.
