Because it is built on Node .js, Meteor good using JavaScript on the client side or the server. What's more, the Meteor can also download share code
airport environment.

The result of all this is a platform that is very simple but capable, which automatically handles the complexity-the complexity and difficulty of common web application development.

What is MongoDB?

MongoDB (from the word "humongous") is a document oriented database that is open source. MonggoDB is one of the noSQL database, i.e. a concept of non-relational data storage. The term noSQL was abbreviated from "Not Only SQL" database management systems that are different from relational database management systems in several ways.

In Meteor there are 3 ways to templating:

1. using the Angular Js
2. using the Js React
3. Use blaze

Templating by using the default templating is a blaze of
Meteor Js templating. and that we use is the use the blaze. Adding package-package required:
Previously we've added package twbs: bootstrap and
accounts-password. There are still some additional packages are needed. IE:

1.Meteor add Session

On Meteor under version 1.3 package session already installed in the Meteor Js. But for version 1.3 and above you should add them. The function of the package is to create a temporary session data. Data session will be set to default if the web we reload/refresh.

2.add iron Meteor: router

Iron: the router function for handling the routing from our website.

3.add aldeed: Meteor collection2

Package serves to create schemes and arrangement of documents (table in sql) database. Because basically there is no arrangement of nosql database alias its schema. So we can add it with lightly. But with the package aldeed: collection2 we can configure the fields anything that must exist in our scheme, and any field whose value should not be null and so on.
