I noticed our companies Ember.js based SPA site not being indexed well until I added a sitemap. Then it quickly appeared in the rankings.

Historically Google has been using some fork of Chrome 10 when indexing. I'm unsure what impact that is having on the reliability of app rendering, but I also trust the Google search team has done reasonable checks ensuring common sites and frameworks render correctly.

I strongly suggest using a sitemap for JS rendered sites, based on my own experience.

It's also worth noting that even when they do get JS delivered content, it updates much less frequently...

Then again, I really like react+redux+koa (r3k) for client-server rendering.... Hoping to do something more serious with it in the next few months at work.
