mini-meteor - Select Client-side components of MeteorJS

Hypothesis: More people would try Meteor if they could evaluate its front-end behavior first, independently of its server components.

The Solution
I have released a package to Bower, and to Npm, called Mini-Meteor. This gives developers access to the Reactive capabilities of Meteor, including utilities for making reactive JS objects. It can be used as a replacement for Angular, Ember, or Backbone, though it will be most familiar to those accustomed to the Knockout library.

After reading the Discover meteor , I want to create sample web apps with meteor.js. So, I did the todo. Yes, it’s easy and can apply what we learn. I commitstep by step and it’s only 15 commits. So, if you want to learn , how I did it , you can check on the commits.

Why meteor

Meteor is awesome for real time web apps. It’s using DDP (Distributed Data Protocol) for real time. If you are making the real time web app, you should chose the meteor. But if you are making to show large amount of data, not recommend for my point of view.

Learning

Meteor is different with other framework. So, if you want to learn meteor , I recommend the Discover meteor book. After reading the book , you should watch the EventedMind videos.
