- lmm 13y agoSame reason people use Coffeescript: even if you have to run on python2, it's still nicer to develop in python3.
- michaelhoffman 13y agoNot enough nicer to deal with any of the not-nice things that come with straddling the major version.
- rst 13y agoBut nicer by enough to make it worth the bother of invoking a translator before you can run your code? Projects using Coffeescript often go out of the way to hide that step, one way or another (Rails asset pipeline, etc.). And Coffeescript arguably improves on raw JS a whole lot more than Python3 improves on Python2.
