Why Meteor?
Meteor allows you to move faster, integrate with your favourite technologies and scale your app with unparalleled flexibility. From prototype to large enterprise applications, Meteor is the most efficient way to build applications in pure Javascript.
Features
- One command install means you spend less time setting up and more time building.
- Seamless connection between client and server. Configuration is a breeze, while Meteor is also compatible with your favorite technologies if you want to customize.
- Compile, build, and deploy in a single tool, no configurations required.
- Meteor Accounts: Authorize and authenticate your users faster.
- Plug-and-play package system allows you to build on existing infrastructure.
Use out of the box defaults, or configure your own set up to meet your specific needs. With Meteor.js, the control is completely in the hands of the developer.

Thanks to Meteor's compatibility with the Node.js ecosystem and React, we could gradually spinoff new non-Meteor Node.js services out of the main Meteor app, while reusing most code and avoiding any large rewrites. I can honestly say that without Meteor, Apify might have not been built.
