Contextual components

In this video series, we'll learn how to use the powerful Contextual components feature, added in Ember 2.3, to build reusable and expressive components.

Components are the building blocks of Ember applications. They let you encapsulate styling, data and behavior into single cohesive units. But often you run into situations where multiple components need to share data or interact with each other.
