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.

Summary


Let us summarize the things that we have learned in this chapter. MeteorJS provides support to develop applications for the Web, Android, and iOS. A single source can be built to serve both the Web and mobile platforms. MeteorJS uses Cordova to create mobile builds(.apk or .ipa). MeteorJS allows us to use Cordova plugins like the usual MeteorJS package. We can test run an application both in the emulator or real devices, and MeteorJS provides enough support to run an application with ease. We can debug applications using browsers. Finally, we have plenty of packages in the MeteorJS ecosystem to support mobile application development.

I hope you find the chapter informative and helpful. In the upcoming chapter, we are going to learn whatever is left to know about MeteorJS application development.
