Meteor

Meteor is a simple and complete web framework with the goal of giving developers of any skillset the ability to build robust web applications in a fraction of the time.

It features a handy CLI tool that you can use to scaffold new projects very quickly.

Meteor provides some core projects/libraries, such as blaze, DDP, livequery, and so on, with a unified build system. This simplifies the overall development process and yields an integrated developer experience.

Meteor aims to build real-time applications by providing its two core features, the distributed data protocol on the server side and transparent reactive rendering on the client side. For more details, visit http://meteor.com/features.

Another notable feature of this framework is its extensive package system, named atmosphere, which has modules developed for most of the common application use cases.

It is quickly gaining traction and becoming increasingly popular every day. Currently, its GitHub repo has over 38,000 stars!

Today's web demands efficient real-time applications and scalability. Asynchronous event-driven programming is ideal for this, and this is where Node.js comes in. Server-side JavaScript has been here since the 90s, but Node got it right. With Node for tooling and server-side logic, and a browser-based client-side UI, everything is JavaScript. This leads to rapid, fluid development cycles. The full-stack, single language experience means less context-switching between languages for developers, architects and whole teams.
