Hi,

Been out of the Ember world a while and project I’ve done not the greatest (learned on the go) Did not touch it for a year, would like to try upgrade to the latest version of Ember before carrying on. (client requested some work)

Been thinking about just replacing the package.json with a copy of a new ember project (3.15.2) and then npm install the various dependencies I have (though worried some might not be around anymore?)

Any thoughts / advise? My "old project"s package.json below
