node.js - What is the production-readiness of sails.js and meteor.js, and how to they compare to Django? -

i thinking of using either 1 of them in building our startup job portal validation,verification , includes special features freelancing , all.

is meteor or sails using backend or should go more robust backend django? using javascript on our backend provide ability scale in future moreso django/python?

i opinions in matter decision.

sails.js , meteor both great options production.

both frameworks have real-time (socket.io) support, large/active communities, support stateless backend design make horizontal scalability possible, , great getting web application spun quickly.

sails.js - http://sailsjs.org

• broad database support through waterline orm (there on dozen supported databases)
• concepts should more familiar node.js developers (it's built on express)
• modeled after rails, grails, , django, paradigm more familiar developers experience in tools
• extensible through npm package manager via express middleware , custom modules

meteor - https://www.meteor.com

• better integration between backend , frontend
• project vc-backed firmer corporate backing
• extensible using custom package manager , extension system
• built-in deployment system , hosting on meteor.com

will using javascript on our backend provide ability scale in future moreso django/python?

probably. anything, have right.

my overall opinion meteor sort of cult-ish , monolithic, , once you've chosen it, you're locked in. sails.js built on express, it's easy split out functionality , integrate other tools.

my disclaimer work balderdash (the company invented sails.js); on note, can tell millions of users served sails.js applications. find it's quite good, , our business thriving because of power of sails.js. know folks have used meteor success well.
