Meatier is a full-stack JavaScript web application framework that replicates Meteor's functionality using a modern, modular stack: RethinkDB, GraphQL, Redux, and React. It was designed as a flexible, non-monolithic alternative to Meteor.

Use cases

• build a real-time web app without Meteor's monolithic structure
• replace Meteor with a modern React and Redux stack
• use GraphQL instead of MongoDB and Simple Schema for a full-stack app
• get Meteor-like reactivity with RethinkDB
• start a full-stack JavaScript project with code splitting and css-modules

When to choose

• you want Meteor-style full-stack reactivity but with modern tooling like React, Redux, and GraphQL
• you need flexibility to swap databases instead of being tied to MongoDB
• you want a modular architecture with code splitting and css-modules support

When to avoid

• you need a maintained framework - the project has been inactive since 2018
• you want a small, lightweight stack - the author admits it is overkill for small apps
• you prefer batteries-included simplicity over assembling your own stack
