CoffeeScript
CoffeeScript is a little language that compiles into JavaScript. It’s a thought experiment that aims to test how far we can stretch JavaScript semantics without adding any runtime libraries or outputting reams of generated code. To that end, there are three main aspects beyond what JavaScript provides: A clarified syntax, bonus language features, and a handful of semantic cleanups. Recommended for folks who are interested in languages that run in the browser as well as the server.
