I recently built an app called RemoteBase using MeteorJS, a full stack JavaScript framework. I had some scalability issues, and rewrote the app.

Here is why and how I rewrote the app with Express + React + Redux without MeteorJS. Hope this post mortem helps JavaScript developers and future me.

You echo the issues I've encountered with Meteor and the reasons why we got rid of it. MongoDB is the worst when having to do, well, anything with it. We've moved to FeathersJS with a SQL Backend and could not be happier.

Great, and I just spent a full month learning Meteor.
