New to ember. Got ember app kit up and running but for the life of me cannot figure out why my component is not rendering. In /templates/components i have a template named my-test.hbs. This just has a paragraph in it. Then in my index.hbs I put {{my-test}}. Nothing renders. I must be doing something stupid, but would like to understand why this is failing before i start actually building something.

Gotta love open source. Quoted from github update 5 hrs ago: “Ensure that components are registered properly.” I cloned the repo 10min before this was fixed.
