Not sure I really see the point of this. The syntax seems to offer little beyond what's possible already in ES6, and is missing several features, such as generators, destructuring, rest and spread operators and template strings that are very useful in modern JS development.
- yosbelms 11y agoMost of the design of ES6 is like this due to backward compatibility. I'm very sure if the comunity behind ES6 specs designs a language for the web regardless backward compatibility, ES would be very different to what it actually is. These features you are mentioning are awesome, for sure. But ES6 is bloated for sake of having features plus backward compatibility. Cor is different, it is simple but modern, it is going in the opposite direction.
