Meteor is a complete open source platform
for building web and mobile apps
in pure JavaScript.
Delightful User Experience
Fast & Fun Development
Modern user interface
Make an app that feels like a top-tier web property like Facebook or Twitter, or like a great desktop app — not like a bunch of pages connected by links.
Radically less code
Accomplish in 10 lines what would otherwise take 1000, thanks to a reactive programming model that extends all the way from the database to the user's screen.
Browser and Mobile
A great experience both on the web and as a phone or tablet app.
One language everywhere
Isomorphic APIs mean that the same code, written in the same language, can run on both client and server.
Live updates
Data updates live on the screen as it changes. Users can collaborate seamlessly.
Unified package system
One world of packages that work identically on browsers, servers and mobile devices. (Pull in npm and Cordova packages too!) One build tool that builds all parts of your app.
Ultra responsive
Changes made by a user are instantly visible, without the unprofessional laggy feeling that would result from waiting for a round trip to the server.
Hot deploys
Type one command to push your app into production and update all connected browsers and devices. No need to go through the App Store.
Example apps
A Solid Choice
Fully open source
Everyone has the freedom to use the Meteor code however they wish, according to the open source MIT licence.
Secure
Best practices are baked right into the framework. Secure code runs in a trusted environment.
Flexible
Use the recommended Meteor stack as-is, or customize it by swapping in your preferred components such as Famo.us, Angular, RethinkDB, or Firebase.
Interoperable
You can connect anything to Meteor, from backend enterprise systems to IoT sensors to brain-slicing robots. Just implement the simple DDP protocol.
Professionally maintained
Professional release engineers manage the Meteor release cycle, QA the full stack, and keep APIs stable. The core team has impressive credentials and top-tier venture capital funding.
Warm and welcoming
Meteor’s helpful, kind, and supportive community spans the globe, with local meetups in cities all over the world. Meteor’s mission is to empower everyone to write software.
