The Little Book on CoffeeScript
- yesbabyyes 15y agoThis is a great book on CoffeeScript, good as a companion to the official overview at http://jashkenas.github.com/coffee-script/ http://jashkenas.github.com/coffee-script/. Like the author, I'm a big fan of stitch. Nice work!
- TrevorBurnham 15y agoI'm the author of the PragProg book on CoffeeScript: http://pragprog.com/titles/tbcoffee/coffeescript http://pragprog.com/titles/tbcoffee/coffeescript This is an excellent (and free) crash course on the language that anyone interested in learning it should check out, especially if they already have a solid JavaScript background. I like the approach of clicking the code examples to toggle between CoffeeScript and JS code. Basically, if you already love JavaScript and want to know what all the fuss is about, The Little Book on CoffeeScript is perfect for you. If there are gaps in your JS knowledge (e.g. you're not sure what `this` is or how prototypes work), or you want to learn more about jQuery and Node.js from a CoffeeScript angle, then you should check out the Relatively Big Book on CoffeeScript published by PragProg. :)
- Semiapies 15y agoOh, neat - I hadn't heard about that project. Just picked up the beta bundle.
