Overview

GOTO is a fascinating experiment leveraging the Meteor framework, designed with a focus on geolocation and user tracking. Developed for the Meteor London community, this application explores innovative ways to visualize the arrival of people in specific locations. With its collections-centric architecture, GOTO provides an intriguing platform for users interested in geolocation data and the potential applications of real-time user interaction.

The simplicity of its approach helps streamline the building process, making it accessible to developers who might be impatient to get results. By enabling automatic inclusion of CSS and JS files, as well as providing an easy deployment mechanism, GOTO engages users who appreciate efficiency without sacrificing functionality.
