Road to Embroider. Moving mountains and getting everyone onboard.
summary
A large Ember monorepo with 13 engines, ~126 engineers contributing and ~50 PRs daily upgrades from 3.28 to 4.x, moves CI to GitHub Actions, introduces a shared design system and increments toward Embroider by migrated addons to V2 rather than a host-app flip. Initial build time drops to ~1.5 minutes and rebuilds to 1.5–5s rebuilds. Also ships an engine using Glimmer template imports with TypeScript, explores pnpm and Turborepo for monorepo ergonomics.
