  As the code base grows, the meetings increase
  ember-cli npm install --save-dev ember-cli-foundation (adds foundation to ember cli project)
    do search on npm for ember-cli and find all of the modules/plugins that fit into ember-cli automatically
  ember generate component component-name creates all of the necessary stuff for the component
  ember classNameBindings -> true/false checker and then it will add/change classes
  you can edit properties in the ember inspector of your values on the controller
