Analytics.md

Analytics:

Ember-cli tracks (only) the following data points:

• ember-cli version
• build/rebuild/live-reload times
• how many errors occurred

** note: no personally identifying information is tracked, if something is being leaked please disclose responsibly **

This information is used to:

• See if there are upgrade blockers (users stuck on old version)
• Have a broad idea for build performance (to make sure we don't regress, and how to prioritize)
• See which high-level features are used (serve/test/build/generate etc.)
• See an increase/decrease in error rates

Still Not comfortable?

We understand! To permanently disable any analytics gathering you can update your project's .ember-cli file (or $HOME/.ember-cli for user-wide):

{
  "disableAnalytics": true
}
