Meteor Raises $20M
I looked into Meteor and it's amazing how everything clicks together. It's just such a drastic change in complexity and feels like a breath of fresh air.<p>The one thing that made me drop it as the choice for a primary stack was the fact that it's tied so heavily into MongoDB. Meteor has a mongodb 'server' replicated client side, that's how they can actually make Meteor so god damn snappy, it's latancy compensation.<p>If they were to integrate something like Postgresql into Meteor, I would easily switch over from Rails and it would become my de-facto web stack.<p>I'll just keep building Rails APIs with EmberJS clients until then, I do hope it's soon though. I loved working with Meteor.
