Iโ€™m not at all optimistic about the merchandise store.
The METEOR team should only focus on development and debugging!

On the other hand if for the roadmap
Set a specific time, great.

Iโ€™m looking forward to adding Flutter as a client. To get rid of cordova.

Is Flutter that good? Iโ€™ve havenโ€™t heard great things about it

Flutter is amazing.
I can not say in detail.
Only after researching it I am sure you will leave react native and cordova aside

Does Flutter still create web apps inside of an iframe?

No it is not,
I think it works with js.

I think it is not yet complete for use on the web.

But it is flagship on mobile.
And certainly a good alternative to cordova in the meteor.

Donโ€™t worry @saeeed, our devs will be focusing on development and more important tasks. I will be leading the merch store. :slightly_smiling_face:

Do you think you can schedule a presentation for Flutter as a client? For example, in the next 6 months.
Or to know exactly how many teams have priority?

You can already use Flutter with Meteor. There is a DDP Client developed by @tanutapi: dart_meteor | Dart Package. To develop Flutter apps, you use Dart programming language.

There are examples on his GitHub. You can also check this blog post.

Our team tested this integration a few months ago, and it works. We havenโ€™t implemented any real app, but we know that @tanutapi has used it in production for quite some time. Our goal is to improve this integration, but we donโ€™t have any ETA yet.

If you are interested in it, we recommend testing it and giving feedback to @tanutapi.

I am looking for a reliable package.
Honestly, we are waiting for the package from the meteor team to be able to rely on it.
Solve its problems and be constantly updated.

+1, a major reason people use Meteor is because all of its components are vendor integrated and supported

for using hacky open source packages, we have Node.js :stuck_out_tongue:

I can talk with the Meteor dev team regarding this.

Sorry guys, I just donโ€™t understand why a minor part of announcement came to be a discussion (Meteor Merch Store).

The guys are showing a lot of good new things. Congratulations for all hard work with Meteor!!!
