How to create a new Ember app with the beta build

Question

I can create a new Ember app with ember new my-app. That uses the stable build.

How can I create a new Ember app with Ember CLI that uses the beta build?

Answer 1

To use beta build in newly generated Ember CLI app you have to:

1. In bower.json, change ember version in dependencies to beta, for example: "ember": "2.0.0-beta.1".
2. Run bower install.

However I would suggest to update also versions of Ember Data(both in bower.json and package.json) and other addons to avoid deprecations.
