But what is Ember Octane? Ember Octane is the new, recommended way for developers to build Ember applications and addons.
Octane features a new reactivity model, a renewed practice of building components and a stronger focus on HTML driven web development than ever before. Octane aims to make building Ember apps for developers not only more easy, but also **more fun** right from the start.
And on top of that, Ember Octane is **fully opt-in** and **interoperable** for existing Ember apps - which means you can try out the new way of building modern Ember Octane apps gradually, without having to rewrite your entire app today.

Modifiers are a new feature in the upcoming Ember Octane edition for **sharing code between components**, similar to directives in Vue or Angular. We revisited [Chris Garrett (@pzuraq)](https://github.com/pzuraq)'s blog [Coming Soon in Ember Octane - Part 4: Modifiers](https://blog.emberjs.com/2019/03/06/coming-soon-in-ember-octane-part-4.html) and the [Octane Guides preview docs: Out-of-Component-Modifications](https://octane-guides-preview.emberjs.com/release/components/template-lifecycle-dom-and-modifiers/#toc_out-of-component-modifications) to learn more!

Qonto wrapped up the code in a small addon, [`ember-autofocus-modifier`](https://github.com/qonto/ember-autofocus-modifier). You can use the code as-is, or copy the [snippet code](https://github.com/qonto/ember-autofocus-modifier/blob/v0.0.1/addon/modifiers/autofocus.js) and experiment with creating your own modifier.

## [3 New RFCs To Add New Template Helpers 3️⃣](https://github.com/emberjs/rfcs/pulls?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+author%3Acibernox+templates)

[Miguel Camba @cibernox](https://github.com/cibernox) opened a slew of RFCs around adding new built-in operators to Ember templates. The idea comes from functionality provided in [ember-truth-helpers](https://github.com/jmurphyau/ember-truth-helpers) and is a subset of his [other RFC](https://github.com/emberjs/rfcs/pull/388) to add basic helpers to Ember templates.
