In Ember.js, nested routes allow you to create a hierarchy of routes that correspond to the structure of your application. This can be useful for organizing your application and managing complex UI flows. Here's how you can work with nested routes in Ember.js:

  1. Define your parent route: First, you need to define a parent route in your Ember.js application. This can be done using the Ember.Route.extend() method.
  2. Define nested routes: Next, you can define nested routes within the parent route by using the this.route() method inside the parent route's model function. You can nest routes as deep as needed to match the hierarchy of your application.
  3. Set up the template hierarchy: Once you have defined your nested routes, you can set up the corresponding templates for each route. Ember.js will automatically render the templates for the nested routes based on the current route hierarchy.
  4. Handle transitions between nested routes: To transition between nested routes, you can use the {{outlet}} helper in your templates to render the nested routes within their parent route's template. You can also use the transitionToRoute() method in your route's actions to programmatically navigate between nested routes.
  5. Use dynamic segments: Nested routes can also use dynamic segments to pass parameters from the parent route to the nested route. You can define dynamic segments in your route's model function and access them in the nested route's model function.


Overall, working with nested routes in Ember.js involves defining parent and nested routes, setting up the template hierarchy, handling transitions between routes, and using dynamic segments to pass parameters between routes. By following these steps, you can effectively manage nested routes in your Ember.js application.
