Meteor Methods vs Client-Side Operations - Discover Meteor
Client-side operations are fine during the initial prototyping phase, but for a real-world production app, Meteor methods will usually prove a safer approach!

Let’s dig into one of Meteor’s most powerful features, and hopefully clear up some misunderstandings about reactivity.
Meteor’s built-in collections handle synchronizing data to the browser for you. But this new paradigm comes with its own requirements: order to limit the amount of data and maintain privacy, any real-world app must also include a set of publications and subscriptions in order to make sure the right data is transmitted to the right users. Consequently, publication design is a very important part of building a large scale Meteor app, and it’s often a new challenge for even the most experienced of web developers. So today, we’ll take a look at one of the trickiest problems of publishing data with Meteor: joining across collections.
It’s no secret that Meteor is in a state of flux right now.
Meteor is in a unique position to solve that challenge for you, and in essence become the best possible platform to build React apps.
