What are the use cases of Blaze.render - meteor-blaze

Can somebody please help me understand when and why or under what conditions Blaze.render()/Blaze.renderWithData should be used?
Thanks.

All of the methods on Blaze are an API that you could use if you were implementing your own templating system with Meteor. If you are making a Meteor app using regular Spacebars templates defined in HTML files, you will very rarely need any of these methods.
One case you could use Blaze.render() is to interact with some other HTML or templating library. For example, you could use JQuery to create an element, then use Blaze.render() to insert a template into that element.

Using Vue or React in Amazon MTurk's HTMLQuestion

I want to create an MTurk HTML question that uses a modern web framework, such as Vue or React. For a minute let's assume I can't use an ExternalQuestion which just points to a website I create, but rather want to use HTMLQuestion.
Is that doable? Can I include React, for example, and it will work? Amazon's surrounding HTML will not interfere with it?
Yes, you can do this. Both HTMLQuestion and ExternalQuestion are rendered in an iframe when a worker accepts your HIT. As such, they're completely isolated from any other scripts or libraries on the surrounding page.

How to use select2 v4.03 and AngularJS together

I would like to use AngularJs and Select2 v4.03 without adding any directives. I've researched that it's possible now with the new version of select2.
For now I've been using ui-select but it's only supporting the old version of select2 and I'd like to use the new select2 features in my application.
Can anyone please help me how is it possible to use select2 with AngularJS directly (maybe via ng-model)?
Select2 is a jQuery plugin which has a completely different approach than AngularJS native widgets (in angular these are directives) which are designed to work the angular-way from the beginning. So normally it is a good idea to use native directives if you can. If you don't find a good replacement, then you also can use jQuery elements, but you have to wrap them in an angular directive to tweak them and make them work the angular-way. This is what projects like ui-select do.
So if the newer select2 is still not available on ui-select you can wait until it is implemented. Or search for another wrapper... Or, search for a native alternative. If you haven't already I would recommend you to take a look at oi-select, for example, which I find quite good and flexible.
Update
Sorry, I just checked, and the select2 implementation from ui-select is a native angularJS implementation of the jQuery version and not just a wrapper.

AngularJS and ExtJS together

Just learning , new to this site.
Is it possible to have ExtJs and AngularJS together in same application ?
or is it worth to have both of them in same application ?
Thanks
Sometimes people use ExtJs components in an AngularJS app.
AngularJS is flexible enough to integrate with any other Javascript code/libraries as long as the library has public events to respond to. I would recommend going through the Directive and scope documentation on how to effectively create directives and respond to scope events.
Personally I do not feel ExtJS and AngularJS would be needed together, unless you are forced to use it like me. There is http://angular-ui.github.io/ that brings in a lot to the table. Again any given JQuery plugin can be integrated using directives, filters etc in AngularJS. So you may want to investigate into that before trying to bother with ExtJS.

Is it possible to integrate angular.js and ember.js in the same page?

Is it possible to use both angular js and ember js inside a single div element in a single web page?
Is it not recommended (best practice)?
Yes, it's possible. I don't see why you'd want to do it, but you didn't mention the use case, so I can't say it is or isn't recommended for your situation.

Looking for a very simple implementation of ckeditor and AngularJS

I have seen a few posts on how to create directives and controllers. However I am looking for something as simple as possible. Does anyone have any experience with creating some simple HTML code that allows me to use CKEditor. In particular the one thing I am not sure of is how to bind the editor contents to the model when I am using AngularJS.
Below is the link please check it

if you are interested in tinymce it is available in angularUI below is the link
