I don't like JSX also... Totally agree with the author... JSX is just a hype, as I feel...

I dont like JSX either. just a hype...

I still dont understand this fatigue rant around JavaScript. Because I started to work with Ember.js 4 years ago, and it is the solution for everything. The framework evolved nicely and works perfectly. It was not a bet, it was serious choice which based on a real perspective and concept.

Ember is matured and production ready for years now. You can focus on your product. So, as an Emberjs dev never felt that problem than other js developers. Dont experiment, start using the best tool out on the market... no more crying only happiness. ;)

Ember implemented React and Redux concept a year ago, the component layer is based on Virtual DOM. You can see here all the hooks what you can find in React, maybe with a little bit different function names... a modern Ember app is full of components. ;) http://emberjs.com/api/classes/Ember.Component.html (Tick the check-boxes, Ember.js is nicely object oriented, so you can get a lot from parent classes.)

Yes, you can be a very good developer quite quickly nowadays. Free tutorial like this: http://yoember.com helps to learn from very basic concept to advance features. The most important is practicing every day, you have to spend at least 2 hours, every day with programming... Sounds crazy, but you can start applying for developer jobs on the second week and you will get great tasks and tricky questions... You probably will fail a couple of times... but those tasks and questions give you new challenges what you have to chase and learn. A month later you will have a junior job where you can learn more focused solutions. You will love this new world and you want to go to learn more things, so a few years later you can go back to university part time and learn CS there, just for fun, but you will enjoy. Good luck! You have a great journey ahead. ;)

Ember.js is already proved, the best framework out there nowadays. Corporate ready, production ready, future proof. I'm really looking forward, that Type Script support will be landing soon in the framework, so it will be a concrete solid environment. The whole addon ecosystem, with Ember Data and Ember CLI is just top-notch.
