Meteor alternatives?

Wekan / General · June 20, 2019 at 2:53am

Hey guys, I built an Open Source app in Meteor a while ago (it actually had Kanban functionality as well, funnily enough), but as we all know Meteor is showing it's age and the community seems to now be non-existent.

What tech stack would you guys recommend as a modern alternative to Meteor? Any plans for Wekan to migrate to something else?

I really would love to not have to start from scratch on my project, but I don't really think I have a choice anymore with Meteor. Between the memory consumption and build sizes, it's just no longer a feasible option.

Although currently Haxe 4.0 beta is in heavy development, there is some breaking changes so that some haxetink https://haxetink.github.io libraries do not work, and those breaking changes are such that currently they are impossible to abstract over, it needs some fixes

They are just thinking of it as a sport to install always latest Haxe nightly and latest git version and fix things in the fly as they come

It's the same as do Ruby on Rails users, they follow current git version https://github.blog/2019-09-09-running-github-on-rails-6-0/

And try to get fixes to it immediately as they happen

Python going to Python 3.x is the same
