The gist of it is this. If you include the minified version of the CoffeeScript compiler on a webpage (43k, gzipped), it will compile and evaluate the inline coffeescripts on the page. That documentation site uses it to hook up the menu and the "Try CoffeeScript" demonstration in the toolbar. If you view source, you'll see something along these lines: <script type="text/coffeescript"> window.repl_run: -> try eval window.compiled_js catch error then alert error close_menus: -> current_nav.removeClass 'active' if current_nav current_nav: null $(document.body).click -> close_menus() </script>
