Meteor is about to hit 1.0. The current go to tutorial for Meteor is https://www.discovermeteor.com/. And a good snapshot of the current learning resources can be found at https://www.yauh.de/best-learning-resources-for-meteorjs/.

I still owe you an email.

I saw "Meteor" presentation on their website yesterday. The 'real-time' client-server approach is impressive. I was impressed. Their straight-forward non-MVC approach might be handy for small projects.

To me "Meteor" looked more like a direct competitor to Sinatra than Rails.

Anyhow "Meteor" seems pretty impressive.

I already know of Meteor. its great. I like it more than Rails, or any other framework in the market. The question, though worded inappropriately, was that I notice everything related to JS.. what the fudge cookies is happening in the other languages?
