[Video] Servoy vs MeteorJS

In the past week, MeteorJS has generated a lot of buzz in the internetz. And for good reason: developing javascript applications is currently a painful process of determining what libraries and projects to use, getting them all to work together, working out debugging strategies, setting up code sharing with multiple developers, and finally building and deploying. 

All of which has very little to do with actually writing your web application!

The holy grail of web application development is starting from a point where all the brute grunt work is already done for you so you can focus on just writing and deploying an application. Meteor makes a compelling case that they have figured this out.

Of course Servoy has been doing this for years. So I sat down today and replicated the Meteor demo video with Servoy. Many similarities and some slight differences which I discuss as I go through the same steps they do to build and deploy a complete application.
