Today ends up being another dev day. EmberJS announces that the new Glimmer rendering engine is now available in canary builds. This is big news for anyone using Ember. On Javalobby, there is discussion of vorlon.js and how to use it to debug your javascript remotely. Lastly, Superfeedr talks about reading the HTTP raw body from several different languages.

I will be at a conference for a few days this week, so I cannot promise to be prompt with updates.

As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
