> What I'd really like to see at this point is some smart packages built on top of Meteor that make building basic CRUD applications simple again. We built what you've described with Exponential.io. Essentially, we take a spec file and generate an Angular client, an Express API and a Mongo backend with a focus on CRUD applications. We're doing a beta / soft launch in 2 weeks on Feb. 28. In terms of platforms, we're releasing a solution to rapidly build an Angular + Node/Express API + Mongo (aka MEAN) on the 28th. We'll follow-up with a solution for Meteor in short order. Interestingly, we built the Meteor solution first but are releasing the MEAN solution first as Meteor 1.0 is close, but not ready yet.
