Nope. Nope. GitHub stars was never a good reason to choose a framework. How about we compare real businesses out there?
Airbnb, Square, Twitter, GitHub, Basecamp, etc for Rails. What's there for Meteor?
- m52go 11y agoI'm not saying the # of GitHub stars is a good reason to choose a framework. But it is an indicator of it being something more than not-just-another-stupid-shiny framework that cannot be immediately dismissed.
- angersock 11y agoI'd disagree--a lot of the JS folks I've met are like magpies and will star anything that looks remotely interesting on Github. It is exactly chasing shiny.
- gknoy 11y agoI normally treat stars as a bookmark, rather than as a declaration that I believe this is High Quality Work. Rather it's more along the lines of "I want to be able to find this easily at home when I have spare time next week".
