The web is dead – applications now rule our online experiences. But how are you going to build them? Well, if you’ve been paying attention, you might already have tried your hand with MeteorJS, the JavaScript framework that helps you build complete full-stack web applications that are responsive and fast with ease. Mastering MeteorJS Application Development shows you how to do even more with MeteorJS – if you’re ready to try a comprehensive course through one of the most exciting frameworks in web development today, this is the book you need. Designed to take you through the entire process of building an advanced multipage application with Meteor, you’ll be able to bring your web development ideas with surprising ease. You’ll not only learn how Meteor makes web development easier, but also how you can make using Meteor easier, by automating and simplifying tasks so you can be confident you have full control of everything in your workflow – especially everything that could go wrong. From automated testing to integrating other useful frameworks such as Angular and D3, each chapter covers a crucial element in the Meteor development process. Discover how to integrate animations using Meteor’s Blaze, to give your UI designs the edge, and explore reactive programming to effectively harness RESTful systems in your projects.

Summary


Let's summarize what we have learned in this chapter. We have learned how to create packages for a MeteorJS application. We have learned to describe a package for both local and public use. Also, we have learned how to add files to a package and export variables. We have used jasmine to test our package with the help of velocity. Finally, we have learned to follow the conventions to publish or distribute a package to the MeteorJS ecosystem.

I hope you have enjoyed the chapter. Now, you can go ahead and create some useful packages and distribute it for the community to use. In the next chapter, we will learn to use some of the popular frontend frameworks with a MeteorJS application.
