To make jQuery plugins work with Ember.js, you can follow these steps:

1. Include jQuery in your Ember.js project by adding it to your ember-cli-build.js file or using npm to install it.
2. Import jQuery in your Ember components or controllers where you want to use the plugin. You can import jQuery at the top of the file like this:

1

import $ from 'jquery';

1. Next, import the jQuery plugin that you want to use in the same file. Some plugins may require additional setup or initialization, so be sure to follow the plugin's documentation for any specific instructions.
2. You can then use the jQuery plugin in your Ember component or controller by calling it on a DOM element. For example:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7

import Component from '@ember/component';

export default Component.extend({
  didInsertElement() {
    this._super(...arguments);
    this.$('.your-element').yourPluginName();
  }
});

1. Be sure to handle any necessary cleanup or teardown of the plugin in the willDestroyElement lifecycle hook in your component or controller.

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully use jQuery plugins in your Ember.js project.
