What side projects have you built with MeteorJS?

Hey Meteorites!

We think that MeteorJS is great for getting ideas to market quickly. And so, it is a great way to build side hustles.

We would like to know what side hustles you have done! Here are some questions to guide you:

  • What side projects have you built with MeteorJS?
  • Can you share the links?
  • How many have you built?
  • Have you monetized any of them?
  • Are you willing to talk about it or demonstrate it on the TWIM stream?

Let us know!!!

Hey Alim,

Nice initiative, this might be a good example for the meteor team to start doing something similar for their content.

I have built a lot of projects with meteor, and all started as side projects. Most of them don’t live anymore.

I think from the top of my head I have built around 12 but I’m sure there are a lot more, and most of this where not single apps but had multiple web apps for different users and mobile apps.

3 of this projects make some money.

www.propiedata.com (it’s 2 separate platforms under the same company)
www.okarai.com (im just starting this one but it already has 2 paying customers)

Thanks for you feedback, Paulo! I thought we’d see more people chiming in to share what they’ve done, but I don’t see anything. Does this mean this idea that MeteorJS is well-suited for side hustles is wrong?

I think people are just busy doing their things.

Probably is easier to see it like you are in a sales position, you are trying to “sell” people the idea of spending time to appear on a video. For that, is much easier to ask the people you might know that have what you are looking for if they will take some minutes of their time to record a video.

Asking people directly for what you want is just like magic. Most people will want to help if they can.

Literary Universe started as a side project, but now is my main project. Hopefully it will stay that way.

My side projects for the summer that I hope will generate some money for me:

I have a project which will be released in this summer, it’s a mobile app built with React Native CLI. Meteor is the back-end, and we use Apollo to handle APIs.
