I'd recommend the Travis CI project - it uses Ember on the client side and Rail 3 on the server. While it doesn't use the latest Ember features it has very good foundations. You'll find the client-side code in a separate repo travis-web.

I also found reading through @ebryn's "New Twitter" helpful although it is older (Sproutcore 2) and smaller/simpler than Travis CI.

Update: Ember has gone through a number of big changes leading up to their 1.0 release so a lot of older example apps use deprecated APIs and are no longer representative of best practices. A new example to check out is Discourse (https://github.com/discourse/discourse) a large webapp built by Jeff Atwood and Robin Ward. Also, check out @trek's Ember Todos, a version of TodoMVC with a touch more process (https://github.com/trek/ember-todos-with-build-tools-tests-and-other-modern-conveniences)

Discourse is a great app to look at Ember features, however, their codebase uses lot of the old features in emberjs. But they do work perfectly — Omnipresent, Sep 28 '13 at 14:02
For Emberjs & Laravel learners, [Exyht](http://exyht.github.io/exyht) could be a good example. — Hasib Mahmud, Feb 05 '15 at 03:03

I recommend the ToDoMVC project, which offers the same Todo application implemented using MV* concepts in most of the popular JavaScript MV* frameworks of today. Now ToDO MVC ember.js example adapts ember.js 1.0.rc1. The website: http://todomvc.com/ The source: https://github.com/addyosmani/todomvc

I recommend the http://www.embercasts.com/episodes/client-side-authentication-part-1 great to start with authentication.

And also it from smashing magazine http://coding.smashingmagazine.com/2013/11/07/an-in-depth-introduction-to-ember-js/

a good exercise is to put those apps to work in http://iamstef.net/ember-app-kit/ that has the current releases
