> Have you tried similar frameworks like Derby (http://derbyjs.com/)? If so, can you compare your experiences?

I tried Derby.js because of one important for me missing feature of Meteor: serverside HTML rendering - required for search engines and also for CMS or content like applications. IMO Derby.js got it right there.

Unfortunately Derby.js is seriously lacking professional documentation of any kind: Meteor already has books and 2 very good and long enough video courses (from pluralsight and tutsplus)

Did you check out the meteor package "spiderable"? It might need to mature a bit but it might do the trick

Of course I did :). It's not usable at all :). It's also not reducing the initial loading time (very high for any public webpage).
