Meatier: Meteor Alternative

:hamburger: like meteor, but meatier :hamburger:

Some of my chief complaints with Meteor

  • Built on Node 0.10, and that ain’t changing anytime soon
  • Build system doesn’t allow for code splitting (the opposite, in fact)
  • Global scope (namespacing doesn’t count)
  • Goes Oprah-Christmas-special with websockets (not every person/page needs one)
  • Can’t handle css-modules (CSS is all handled behind the scenes)
  • Tied to MongoDB for official support
