jQuery nor coffeescript really imply "clean" client-side code, in fact I would argue that most uses of jQuery are the opposite if you compare communities like mootools. As far as coffeescript goes you still need a good sense of structure like regular javascript, nothing new there really.
- the_mitsuhiko 15y agoMootools still disqualifies itself in my mind by patching around on builtins.
- tjholowaychuk 15y agocertainly, but that's besides the point. If you look at the jQuery community vs the others, jQuery's is filled with much much more spaghetti code
- ryanflorence 15y agojQuery makes the DOM so dang accessible that people use it as their data, which is completely backwards. Fortunately stuff like backbone has brought back some sanity.
