Meteor App Assessment
A clear-eyed audit ending in keep, upgrade, or migrate.
Most teams running an older Meteor app share one problem: nobody can say, with evidence, what state it is actually in. The assessment fixes that.
What we examine
- Version posture — Meteor release, Node version, MongoDB server and driver versions, and each one’s support horizon.
- Meteor 3 readiness — a census of sync-API call sites the Fibers-to-async conversion must touch, and the test coverage over them, so the upgrade becomes an estimate instead of a guess.
- Package inventory — every Atmosphere dependency, bucketed: core, community-maintained, abandoned-but-replaceable, abandoned-and-blocking.
- UI stack — Blaze, React, or the common half-migrated mix, read against your hiring reality and feature roadmap.
- Data layer — MongoDB schema conventions, index health, oplog and pub/sub load characteristics.
- Hosting and operations — Galaxy or self-hosted, deployment reproducibility, monitoring, backups, bus factor.
- Delivery health — how long a trivial change takes to ship, test suite state, incident history.
What you receive
A written report a CTO can act on: findings with numbers, a keep/upgrade/migrate recommendation with its reasoning, and a sequenced plan with rough effort ranges for whichever path fits. If the honest answer is that your app is healthier than the team believes — a common outcome — the report says so and shows why.
How it runs
Read access to the repository and (where possible) production metrics, interviews with the people who operate the app, and a focused engagement measured in days to a few weeks depending on codebase size. Billed hourly, like all of our work.
