Coffescript is an actual thing - no need to use "quotations". Besides, Messenger will work with plain js too (or any other compile-to-js lang) it's just the examples that are in coffeescript. You can write an example for alert in cs:
alert "Blammo! A coffeescript alert example"

- jmathai 14y agoI believe the point is, why provide examples in CoffeeScript? Is there any benefit? I'd venture to say less than 1% of people who know JavaScript also know CoffeeScript. Personally, I was wondering what the language language it was.
- davidw 14y agoIf I see examples in Coffeescript, I'm not sure if you can also write it in Javascript, or if the whole thing is in Coffeescript or what.
- mcritz 14y agoI’m not clever enough for Coffeescript. I wish the examples were written in such a way that if I showed it to coworkers half of them wouldn’t roll their eyes.
