System-wide config

Ember Basic Dropdown can take a fair amount of configuration options on invocations to alter its default behavior.

If you want all your dropdowns to behave on a certain way or have some certain classes? Repeating the same options over and over on your templates is boring.

If you want to apply a configuration option to all your dropdowns there is no special way or key in the /config/environment.js you need to learn. Just use The Ember Way™.

Inside your app's /app/components folder create a ember-basic-dropdown.js file:

That's all. No new concepts to learn, just your usual ember-cli work flow.

In this example the component is also named {{basic-dropdown}} but using this approach you can create many components with different names that extend and customize the default one without modifying it.
