Universe Collection

• Meteor Collections on steroids
• Remote methods on documents, easy extending
• Nice API: updates directly on the doc etc.
• Plays well with other packages
• EJSON-able
• Works also on Users collection

You can test it now and give us feedback:

Universe Modules

• Brings ES6 modules into Meteor
• Write code in a modular way
• Especially useful when working with React
• Code is simpler to understand
• Syntax is friendly and future-proof

Building CMS features should be quick

• Context-aware components
• Easy management of entities
• Example usage:
  • blog / news / pages
  • editable menu / footer
