Ask HN: What's your experience with Meteor.js do far?

Much of what I've read on Meteor was promo or written by evangelists. It would be great to hear some war stories or real cases with Meteor.

They usually have a guest speaker or two or three who has built something on Meteor.

Personally, I've enjoyed working with it over the last two years. It comes with a lot of powerful functionality built in (too much to list here).

But, it is still changing. They just got to 1.0 in September, I think. I know a big red flag for many is its immature testing framework, which is not up to par yet.

I took a serious look at it about a year ago. It felt like it still needed a lot of work before it could meet my needs. I put it aside and never looked back.

What's your criteria for telling that something was written by an evangelist and not just someone's actual positive experience with Meteor?
