I just wish it wasn't so tightly integrated into everything. I'd love to use Meteor as a library, but I'm always afraid of choosing something that I can't replace later.

Either way, best of luck to them!

You could always use the DDP library [1] ("REST for websockets") for realtime transfer. It's separate from the "core" Meteor package (a collection of packages, really).

There's also a list of libraries for other languages that communicate with Meteor via DDP. [2]
