dear coffeescript, thank you for =>

  this x1000. I can't count the # of times my tests were failing on new code I wrote and it took me one second to look at is and say, "Oh yeah... this" and just flip -> to =>. So easy.

  The fat arrow is the best piece of syntactic sugar cs offers.

    I like the class and for comprehensions sugar very much as well.

      My favorite is the Maybe-monad-esque ? syntax. It lets you write expressions like this: obj.a?.b?.c?() which will execute normally if all those properties exist, but return null instead of failing if they don't.

      do (foo) -> is also a nice one

  thanks, I have been using cs recently and didn't even know about it!
