Review on Meteor by Reginald Pitt

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A powerhouse and must have library anyone building webapplications needs

As an Angular developer, I use this tool to build both clientside as well as backend applications with ease using TypeScript features like decorators! It's super easy for me to integrate it in my existing JS projects since all my client side apps are written in Typescript/Angular2 already :) Sometimes meteor crashes randomly but that doesn't really bother you much if your app is small enough or not very critical (and don't try debugging too many things at once). And yes they should release more packages which will make their ecosystem even better than nodejs itself. Its great because its easily integrates into any javascript project without requiring additional libraries so there isn;t anything complicated about integrating them other then just adding one line of code per package required by our application.

Pros
  • The best thing i can think off right now would be how quick we write frontend stuffs while being ableto get serverless architecture within minutes alongwith having access database directly from Javascript files instead of going through Node modules..all these makes development process quite fast compared to most frameworks outthere.I also love writing ES6 codes inline when working inside angular
Cons
  • Some little things
