Agreed, CoffeeScript is much more extensive, and in most cases (from what I can see) prettier. Kaffeine piping seems cute though. Maybe the author could join forces with the CoffeeScript project?
Note on CoffeeScript: it took me _one_ .coffee script to get used to the syntax, and I'm never ever gonna write vanilla JS again if possible.
- weepy 15y agoDon't think that CoffeeScript is much more extensive - Kaffeine has most of the features. Other advantage is that the output Javascript is very similar to the input, unlike Coffee where there's various implied closures and magic T_T
- jashkenas 15y agoweepy is actually a contributor to CoffeeScript from the early days. Kaffeine represents his take on what a little language that targets JS should look like.
- nibnab 15y agoI've often wondered what 'little' in the CoffeeScript tag line meant ? Do you mean that it's terse ?
