| I'm a .NET guy, and I love Meteor. There's no call for this kind of ragging because he expressed his opinion that he felt it wasn't yet ready for large applications. He made valid points, you had a good rebuttal with respect to alternative methods while embracing the ecosystem. There was no need to take it to an unprofessional level. In addition, his points are all valid - these things aren't baked-in, and once they are, he's sure the platform will get a large user base. Currently, you can make a large application securely with the commonly sought out factors of high availability, reliability, and scalability - but you have to work at it. It's incredibly nice when a big company like Microsoft comes out and offers everything to you. If MDG had that kind of money and did that with Meteor, would you complain about it? No, you wouldn't. You'd talk about how incredible it is that they did that. Using out-of-the-box functionality instead of "gluing" things together doesn't mean you're any less creative. If anything, it means you're more efficient and utilizing all of the functionality already available instead of re-inventing the wheel. I don't know you, and I'm sure you're a great dev, as probably is @alexandernst - so why attack his opinion instead of just stating yours and sharing why yours may be more valid if people are willing to put in extra work? |
