Meteor Development Group

Meteor 1.3 improves performance for app rebuilds and some minimongo package update queries. Minimongo is a package reimplementing most of the MongoDB API against an in-memory JavaScript database. A rewritten Cordova layer, meanwhile, is for building iOS and Android applications. The Cordova capability has been upgraded to the latest versions, including 6.0.0, Cordova iOS 4.1.0, and Android 5.1.1. Also planned for a future release of Meteor are updates for Node, to version 4, and MongoDB, to version 3.2. Additionally, Meteor's Livedata system now supports tunable queries to help scale large apps. Meteor is publishing an up-to-date Meteor Guide with the release, featuring best practices.
