Preface

Meteor is the weapon of choice for start-ups in today’s world as it’s an incredibly powerful and fun platform that allows you to build real-time web applications quickly and easily and in pure JavaScript. It provides developers with tools and flexibility to build a fully-fledged production app.

Meteor aims to create single-page applications where real time is the default. It takes care of the data synchronization and updating of the DOM. If data changes, your screen will be updated. These two basic concepts make up a lot of the work we do as web developers, and with Meteor this happens without any extra line of code.

It is modular and declarative, supports data-on-the-wire, is well supported by a thriving development community, and implements full-stack reactivity to create a great impact on your day-to-day development efforts.

As Meteor is modular and well supported, it works easily with all of your favorite JavaScript frameworks. You can use the entire Meteor stack, or you can mix and match it with community packages to complement your existing infrastructure / skill set.
