Meteor JS VS Socket.io

As you might have seen from this PR and in our forums Meteor v3(it is still in beta, but you can follow the progress here) will be released with a new engine, expressjs.

We are in the process of migrating documentation from the current site to the new one. You can follow the status in this PR, and the preview site is here. In the near future, we will move our guide to the same site.

We are in Meteor v3.0-alpha.19. To see what is missing for our beta and official release, you can check this GitHub discussion here.

Community stats: The Meteor.js GitHub repository has an active community with 43.8k stars and 5.4k forks.

Finally, the release of Node 16 became basically incompatible with fibers and thus, Meteor.js got stuck on Node 14. This implied a major rewrite of a large potion of the platform's internals as it all depended on fibers. Further, it implied that all Meteor.js projects and packages required a major rewrite as well.

So, I found this project to be at release 0.8.3, which is from June, 2014. The latest available documentation are the release 1.3 docs. The related 1.3 release is tagged on GitHub from 2016, so there is basically a gap of two years in between this.

Making the Meteor.user API clearer

You need to have Meteor installed on your system. Follow the Meteor installation instructions on the Meteor website.

Meteor.js is a full-stack JavaScript platform for developing modern web and mobile applications. Meteor includes a key set of technologies for building connected-client reactive applications, a build tool, and a curated set of packages from the Node.js and general JavaScript community.

Meteor.js is a full-stack platform that simplifies the development of web applications by providing a unified approach to building both the front-end and back-end. With real-time data updates, Meteor.js speeds up the development process and ensures you can create powerful applications.

Before diving into this tutorial, if you find microservices mysterious, check out my previous article for a detailed explanation. In this hands-on tutorial, we'll build a real-time chat server using Node.js, Socket.io, RabbitMQ, and Docker. Get ready for a practical journey into the world of microservices! Let's begin.

Socket.io Docs

Now we will be implementing socket logic using socket.io for building websockets. This library provides an abstraction layer on top of WebSockets, simplifying the process of creating real-time applications. For better maintainability, it is recommended to create a separate file for socket calls. To do this, navigate to the src folder, create a folder named services, and inside it, create a file named socket.ts under the services folder.

Hi I made a chat app using socket.io it worked fine locally but when i deployed the app on render.com socket is not working properly i have to refresh the page to see new messages please help...

Nextjs + socket.io.. Planning to use webrtc for video calls later

Implementação em Node usando Socket.io

I am using socket.io for real-time notification service. Previously my frontend part was deployed in Netlify and here the notification was not working properly as Netlify follows serverless architecture.

yes. Im running on DreamCompute currently. Discord.js and socket.io within same app. A dedicated server works too, but pricier.

No, not a library. More like, the frontend and backend just happen to need the same version to be compatible (socket.io is a good example, moment.js was the most basic I could think of).

For apps that require real-time communication, Socket.IO can be a valuable addition. It enables bidirectional, event-based communication between the server and client, making it an ideal choice for implementing real-time chat features.
