A simpler alternative to meteor?

that’s exactly what I’m doing.

I’ll rephrase: I already done that, but I’m trying new and smarter ways.

Doing the same thing in multiple ways is very useful to improve your skill. I did it with bare node, but is there a smarter way? Maybe there is something I’m missing?

Cycle.js is a JS framework, check it out.

I also recently checked Strapi. From the doc, I really like it because it is very well organized, includes a lot of functionalities and uses latest technologies.

I’m still waiting for a Rails like framework in Node.js. Meteor almost does that but misses conventions and flexibility (also CLI/Scaffolding). But of course Meteor is easier and prototyping is way faster.

Does someone knows a framework in Node like Rails ? Strapi seems to be good, Loopback too, Sails also, but all of them don’t seem to be really popular and I don’t know why.

What I personally like about Meteor or Rails is that I need to focus on the code only, and not the configuration/build tools. I really like the fact that I can just code what I want and then RUN it and deploy it in a standard easy way if I want.

I also found Totaljs which seems very promising.

Omg, there’s so much to see, here’s another one haha: DoneJS
