Alim is shipwrecked this week, leaving the Jan brothers to run the show. This week highlight some important development in tooling and docs to aid in transitioning from legacy and 2.x series platform applications to MeteorJS 3.0. We recap a recording featuring Storyteller and MS's Gabriel Grubba that demonstrates how MeteorJS maintainers decide what pull requests to merge. And we share a few of the contributions from the inimitable Max Savin.

Küster is out on family vacation, while Alim takes a break from engine work to do the news with Storyteller this week. Meteor Software is hard at work on the 2.x and 3.0 MeteorJS branches, and Galaxy on Meteor Cloud. It looks like Gabriel Grubba did not get the last word in on the migration guide. Have you taking the 2.x to 3.0 migration survey? If not, what are you waiting for? We're updating on everything, sharing some of the best packages for improving the developer experience from a west coast maven (Qualia), and shouting out Grapher contributions.

This week, StorytellerCZ is off the road, Alim has Covid-19, and Küster is back! BunJS is back in the oven but the Internet is wondering if its performance is too good to be true. Is it too soon to expect that this "drop-in NodeJS replacement" will have a future in MeteorJS? StorytellerCZ has a ... story to tell. (Okay, that was awful.)

In This Week in MeteorJS (episode 3) we're joined by guest hosts Filipe Nevola former CEO and Gabriel Grubba, OSS Engineer from Meteor Software, filling in for Ambassador Jan Dvorak. We cover developments and questions around the Meteor 3.0 release timeline; a new Typescript features for improved resource management; and what's in this year's State of CSS report. Filipe teases promising results from testing codebase performance on 3.0 and 2.x runtimes, and we learn from Gabe and Filipe about how the Connect middleware framework has been swapped with Express, and what it means if your code uses the Meteor Connect API.
