I have been avoiding JS for years (not out of hate, just the job) and every time I dabble in the node/js framework ecosystem I end up turning away frustrated.
I have a few small personal projects that I haven't started due to lack of desire in building the front end I want, after reading this I'm going to give them a shot and see how far I can go with out all the goodies!
- vskarine 11y agoI was in the same boat, tried reading tutorials for Angluar/Ember/Backbone/etc and wanted to throw up because of all the complexity and prior web experience/knowledge that they expect you to know. But then tried Meteor and everything there made a lot of sense to me.
- quackware 11y agoMeteor is a great stepping stone to the more complicated JavaScript ecosystem of node/react/angular/webpack etc. I was a huge fan of it when I first started web development, but all its limitations caused me to switch over to using the above mentioned technologies. I highly recommend it to any beginner to web dev!
