Meteor + React + Reapp

I have gone half way through to integrate reapp but the project breaks with latest react so i started looking into touchstoneJS.

I’m also interested if any progress has been made with Reapp and Meteor. Also, will Meteor 1.3 (with the improved NPM support) help or fix the issues at hand? Thoughts?

I abandoned my Reapp efforts due to project timeline constraints, so I went with something else.

My idea was to get the Reapp Kitchen Sink running on Meteor, so that Meteor devs would have a go-to reference for Reapp. But his Kitchen Sink app is tightly integrated with his reapp-router, which, if you’ve read above, is obsolete and not easy to separate.

But honestly, the Kitchen Sink is unnecessary. I bet that if you wanted a particular component, you may be able to just drop it in and it will work fine. Meteor 1.3 will certainly help avoid the headaches I went thru, but that’s not the main problem at this point.

Since my original reply above, Reapp looks to be abandoned (check out the main repo at https://github.com/reapp/reapp: NOTICE: Needs contributors, current broken, don't open a ticket open a PR), and Touchstone JS appears to be the next closest thing to Reapp (non-Material Design, but still lacking some of Reapp’s features.)
