CokeScript
CokeScript is a whitespace sensitive language inspired by Python and Ruby that compile to JavaScript. This project is still at an early stage. The CokeScript compiler is written in CokeScript.
How does it compare against CoffeeScript:
- Scoping is not broken (https://donatstudios.com/CoffeeScript-Madness)
- Multiline string don't necessitate backslashes
- Virtual Dom support within the language
- The source code of the language is rather simple and short
- Language specification
- Interactive demo
Examples
- Consuming a REST API, build with webpack https://github.com/batiste/cokescript-pets
- Simple frontend consuming a CRUD REST API https://github.com/batiste/cokescript-frontend
Atom support
- Syntax highlighting for Atom https://atom.io/packages/language-cokescript
- A linter for Atom https://atom.io/packages/linter-cokescript
