It doesn't reveal or instruct how to take advantage of what IMO are its awesome full CRUD capabilities (reading and writing to a simulated server), which allows a developer to get going quickly with Ember without needing a live API in place.\r\n\r\nBTW there is a lot more useful info about this in the API docs but not everyone rummages through there before building out new features.\r\n\r\nI ended up custom building a bunch of server emulation code with mockjax before realizing this was available. I imagine other developers would love to learn about this, too.\r\n\r\nI'd be happy to submit improvements to the guides here myself but I wanted to flag it first in case someone is already working on this area of the guides."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/emberjs/data/issues/comments/83178096","html_url":"https://github.com/emberjs/data/issues/1524#issuecomment-83178096","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/emberjs/data/issues/1524","id":83178096,"user":{"login":"bmac","id":54056,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/54056?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/bmac","html_url":"https://github.com/bmac","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bmac/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bmac/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bmac/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bmac/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bmac/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bmac/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bmac/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bmac/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bmac/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-03-18T21:10:47Z","updated_at":"2015-03-18T21:10:47Z","body":"Closing this as Ember Data plans to deprecate the fixture adapter and the guides are being re-written with plans to remove the existing references to the fixture adapter.
