Meteor is the next take on agile development on the full JavaScript stack. Based on established JavaScript tools like Node, JQuery and Underscore, it still brings a fresh and integrated approach. And MongoDB is very much its heart: Minimongo implements a client side MongoDB API for manipulating your data model; Transparent replication of data between client and server; Using WebSockets, MongoDB oplog events replicate immediately to all clients, making it simple to do distributed applications "Google Docs style."

To some extent, the client-server integration
is an illusion that quickly falls apart.
A lot of things have to execute explicitly within client/ or server/.
Is there anything I don't like?
