+### generate silently
+You can activate silent mode for the `ember generate` command. Just add a silent option to your `ember.json`. this file is located at your project root.
+
+    {
+      "jsPath": "js",
+      "modules": "cjs",
+      "silent": true
+    }
+
+Though this is can be very useful when using integrated IDE command lines or Macro execution, be very careful as it will overwrite files with no warning!
+
+Keep in mind that autogenerated controllers will have `neither` option.
