Simple Meteor Boilerplate

This meteor boilerplate is coming out of my frustrations in coming with a good theme that is responsive and works as soon as you clone it. The main motivations are to have something sophesticated that is working straight out of the box, that can be customizable and has a robust set of patterns that can be mimiced for a larger undertaking.

The primary goals in priority order:

• A good customizable theme
• Security
• Judicious use of key packages
• Working iOS & Android containers
• Testing with Velocity & Cucumberjs + patterns that can be followed
• Finally, everything should work out of the box

To that end I have created a public roadmap for this on Trello. Shoot me an email or open an issue if it needs to be added to the roadmap.
