The goal is to be able to swap the alpaca renderer with other kinds of renderers, namely renderers that render actual ember components to the form.

We'll use ember config to specify which renderer to use. We'll also create a base ember component renderer that will render components.

For a sample usage, we'll pick a component library such as ember-paper to render the form.

We'd discussed (on Ember Slack) that there is another add-on (ember-frost-bunsen) that does something similar to this. However, it seems to be corporate-backed with most decisions made in-house (instead of discussed on Github). Seems like it would be hard to work on a common add-on. However, it's worth looking at for some ideas 😄

Two items in particular might be of interest:

Hi @toddjordan, co-worker of @jschilli here, I plan to take a look at this pretty soon. Have you made any further updates? Or do you have any additional thoughts? Thanks in advance!

@k3n Hi, awesome! I have been doing some work on this lately and will update the branch this week (probably after some friday/saturday open source time) I'll document my current thinking/approach on this in the issue #23

HI @toddjordan, juggling a couple things at once, but trying to keep tabs on this still. Thanks for the updates!
