Ember.js Component toString() Method
Ember.js is an open-source JavaScript framework used for developing large client-side web applications which is based on Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture. Ember.js is one of the most widely used front-end application frameworks. It is made to speed up development and increase productivity. Currently, it is utilized by a large number of websites, including Square, Discourse, Groupon, Linked In, Live Nation, Twitch, and Chipotle.
The toString() Method of the Component class is used to get a string representation of the object. This method is also used to get more information about the object. It shows the object’s class and if the class is not present in the namespace it shows it’s a subclass of the reregistered superclass.
Syntax:
this.object.toString( );
Parameters: It doesn’t take any parameters.
Returns: It returns string representation.
