From personal experience in order to get started just checking out the documentation(i had started with the old documentation now called guides) should be fine. Some googling around might be needed but should not take much time. Generally i agree that it is a bit hard to get used to the framework, but if one has the ability to look in the console and figure out errors, should not really have any problems getting started with emberjs. Also just grabbing code from the first page, i don't think is a really good idea. Does this technique work with other popular frameworks like http://nodejs.org/ http://jquery.com/ .... ?
