Where is Meteor now, with 1.3 and hopefully by years end for on-demand/lazy-loaded bundling and delivery of static assets, code, stylesheets, etc. Data on the wire for stuff thatās not stored in the persistence layer. Maybe how 1.3+ /imports (might) work in relation to HTTP/2, tree-shaking, Webpack (2), etc.
Same but for CSS modules (including JSS, pre-processors, so related to the above)
Same but for Web workers
Copy the 90ās talk show format, as used by Googleās DevTools Tonight, before it becomes stale
Keep it weekly and dedicate a part to best practices, eg: why globals are bad for build time and size, meteor guide dive ins, modularity techniquesā¦ This way people from outside the meteor community will have a reason to listen, and eventually join us.
Thank you all for the feedback. From what I see, we have done an effective job in being part of the effort bridging the community and MDG and even if the news and debates have slowed you still want to get a fresh Transmission each week?
P.S. you all, thanks for the encouragement and support!
Iād also like to listen to the podcast frequently (weekly). Shorter episodes are OK for me when there is less to talk about.
Iām mainly interested in whatās going on in MDG, what progress has been made with Meteor.
Maybe also to point to things where the community can help, to make faster progress.
As a topic I would like to hear about what the situation is with automated testing Meteor core and CLI itself.
What is your testing culture in MDG?
What can be improved on that?
Does the testing improvements release with Meteor 1.3 make any difference regarding that?
Is this something, where the community can help?
Are you going to transition to Mocha (from Tinytest and Selftest)?
A bit more high level, but In light of the recent discussion about āthe sad state of web developmentā, Iād be interested in knowing how the rise of node/js influenced pivot strategies (especially early on) for mdg.
Hey team, @sashko and I just wrapped up recording #7. It turned out to be a major deep dive into Apollo. I promise you will love it. So much amazing things were touched on.
We are already planning show #8 with a super special guest I hope! When I start the show 8 thread I am going to carry over some of the topics mentioned here like testing, high level node talk, best practices, etc. And we will let you all vote.
Sashko, myself and MDG have big plans for Transmission. Thank you for making it so successful!
Everyone I am sorry for the delay of show #7. But let me tell you, this show is amazing. If you want to know the future-future of the Meteor stack then you must listen to this show. After listening I saw a glimpse of Meteor 2.0 and a mass rush in the wider Node universe to adopt Apollo.
This show is a deep dive into the Apollo stack (Reactive GraphQL) plus the future of Meteor and Galaxy. @sashko shared some amazing details as we worked through each section of this document on GitHub, High-level Design
Loved that episode, thank you guys! It would be great to know when we will have some news about Apollo! And it sounds like MDG, especially @sashko are already trying a couple of things - why not publish those experiments to GitHub?
you all, thanks for the encouragement and support!
