Compare to AngularJS

• Meteor is a full stack framework that runs on top of Node.js on the server.
  • Easy to learn and get a lot done with small amount of code.
     
• Angular is a client only MVC framework, running only in the browser.
  • Steeper learning curve with great usage of some advanced programming patterns
     
• Both templating allows View related code to be purely based on changes to the model. Both gives your application a single point of truth in its model with reactive data sources.

Compare to React

• React is a javascript library for building user interfaces
  • V in MVC design pattern
  • One-way reactive data flow
  • Offers a great reactive rendering layer for your app
     
• The Challenge
  • The missing layers -- getting data from the database into UI components and back
     
• Possible Solutions
  • React + Flux + Relay / Koa ... 

React + Meteor

• How could Meteor help?
   
• Meteor solves the rest of the problem -- server and database hosting, data synchronization, access control, live data updates and optimistic UI. 
   
• React integration layer
  • Streams changes from the database to the client without polling a REST endpoint every X seconds, and gives you optimistic UI updates without any special code.
