Great stuff.
Whilst getting in to Node from Rails (& Meteor) I've found the lack of backend, structured MVC frustrating. Apparently it's not 'Nodey' to make a big framework like Rails, but I'd rather figure that out myself in due course rather than using Express and having no idea what to do after the trivial stuff you see in tutorials…
- nilkn 13y agoCorrect me if I'm wrong, but isn't Meteor built on top of Node? Though I suppose it does, as far as I remember, completely hide the Node container. (Or did I misparse your sentence?)
- jongold 13y agoYup, but it's super abstracted — I run the London Meteor meetup but still have no idea how Fibers work :) I've now written a couple of production apps with Meteor but it always feels like I'm writing frontend JS with a magical backend (and a couple of server methods) ala Parse, rather than building apps with Node.
