New UI library from the Ember people: Glimmer

This is really cool, it looks just like what I would have wanted from a successor to Blaze:

https://glimmerjs.com/guides/templates-and-helpers

It’s got:

  1. Template arguments, separate from helpers
  2. Inline event handlers via handlebars
  3. ES2015 class-based components
  4. Local state via tracked properties

That’s pretty sweet! Would be exciting to see someone use this with Meteor and see if it’s easy to use with Blaze, or migrate from Blaze templates. Seems like it would be with a simple adapter to make tracked properties from … Tracker.
