I'm not a fan of CoffeScript, it fixes the wrong problems. It's not the syntax that's the REAL issue, it's the fragmentation, lack of module system, etc.

- gmac 15y agoCoffeeScript doesn't do much to fix the bad bits -- it's still JavaScript, after all -- but it does make the good bits way more fun.
- franze 15y agoi agree, the biggest fix of coffeescript is not the syntax ( i never saw the JS syntax as the issue), the biggest fix / benefit of CS is: Everything is an Expression (at least, as much as possible) a lot of the hassles with JS just disappear with this "small" change (if applied extensivly)
