Angular.js vs Meteor.js vs Derby.js


    After a post about derby.js and a translation of the comparison of meteor.js and derby.js , the main question that was in the comments was something like this: “What's better than derby.js or meteor.js? And why do you need all this when you can write in angular.js + express.js? ” Of course, it is not entirely correct to compare these frameworks, since derby.js and meteor.js are the so-called full-stack, and angular.js is mvc on the client.
