mantra has luckily not much code itself. It’s basicly just some wireing.
I hope mantra get’s some more momentum from the comunity. I currently use it a lot and thing this is really a good approach.
But I also hope that @arunoda and co. start looking for contributors for their repositories. I understand that they currently want to focus on storybook, but they should at least open their repositories to the community, if they do not want to maintain them.
I’m all for Iron-Router that is what I use. But it seems that the major part of the community is moving over to Flow Router which is also been recommended by a number of people. As a package owner I think it’s correct to support both.
has the community already decided which package to use for FlowRouter’s future? We should ALL use THE SAME ONE instead of creating our own folks with little fixes here and there (p.e. see Spacejam phantomjs no route for the path /local flowrouter).
@sashko: How about putting a recommandation for FineRouter (or another package that you recon) in meteor guide, so that the existing energy gets bundled?
The FlowRouter is in the Guide and since it is a project of Kadira it might be logical for MDG to maintain it, following the news of them buying out Kadira.
We’re not going to become the primary maintainers of flow router, but I’d be happy to replace the link in the Meteor Guide to point to a different package - is there one that a lot of people are using as a replacement?
https://github.com/VeliovGroup/flow-router Seems to be a much more actively maintained and feature-rich version. VeliovGroup also maintains several other very useful Meteor packages and @dr.dimitru is really quick and responsive. You could consider their fork too
I think a good first step would be to ask the community if someone(s) would like to take over maintenance of FlowRouter. It’s still very fit for purpose and IMHO the best outcome would be for it to continue being supported by the community
I’ll ask what the status of that package is - the acquisition on the other post is specifically about the Kadira APM product, but we should see how we can find maintainers for some of the open source packages as well!
Our test app, which was ~4MB, using dynamic import(..) initial load weight reduced to only ~800KB! Try flow-router-extra now tell me how it work for you.
