Sometimes in the docs, they use a “#” instead of a period. Example:
Other times, it uses the period:
What is the significance of the “#” sign?
My guess:
Is the “#” mean that it’s a method called on an instance?

Consider, for example, documentation - Referring to javascript instance methods with a pound/hash sign - Stack Overflow
I think it’s just an instance method and I won’t read too much into it.
I think the idea with the # sign was to denote the existence of a certain function in a given scope, whereas the dot is best used to demonstrate an invocation of a function. But it’s used in the Meteor docs somewhat ambiguously.
