Wasn't adding Ruby-like syntax and syntactic sugar to JS the whole point of CoffeeScript in the first place? Although this is much closer to plain Ruby.

Although this is much closer to plain Ruby.
- jscheel 13y agoIt's a language mimicking ruby, inspired by coffeescript, which is a language inspired by ruby. We've come full circle!
- sthomas1618 13y agoI always felt CoffeeScript was closer to Python then Ruby. But maybe its just the significant whitespace that stands out to me.
- spacebe4time 13y agoYes, just as close to Python as Python to YAML /sarcasm.
- mratzloff 13y agoCoffeeScript was inspired by Python, Ruby, and Haskell.
- adambrod 13y agoYep, it has very close goals when compared to CoffeeScript. However for the most part RedScript ditched the "It's just Javacript" mantra. I also just wanted to learn Regular Expressions and Node so I thought I would make this to prototype an idea.
