6. CoffeeScript
7. Transpilers
8. The elevator pitch
9. “ Expose the good parts of JavaScript in a simple way.
10. “ It’s just JavaScript.
11. Readable Natural language Speed Backward compatible Sturdy
12. Whitespace sensitive
13. user = name: "John" age: 23
14. No semicolons* No round brackets** No curly braces*** No “var”
15. user = name: "foo" ! if user.name is "bar" console.log JSON.stringify user
16. Lexical scope and variable safety
17. name = "John" age = 23 ! ! (function() { var age, name; name = "John"; age = 23; ! }).call(this);

33. JavaScript™
34. Can I use it?
41. CoffeeScript vs. ECMAScript 6
42. JavaScript (ECMAScript 5)
43. JavaScript (ECMAScript 5) JavaScript (ECMAScript 6)
44. JavaScript (ECMAScript 5) JavaScript (ECMAScript 6) CoffeeScript
45. JavaScript (ECMAScript 5) JavaScript (ECMAScript 6) CoffeeScript
46. JavaScript (ECMAScript 5) JavaScript (ECMAScript 6) CoffeeScript And here’s why…
48. What’s common?
49. Classes
50. class Person extends Actor constructor: (@firstName, @lastName) -> fullName: -> "#{@firstName} #{@lastName}"
51. class Person extends Actor { ! constructor(firstName, lastName) { this.firstName = fistName; this.lastName = lastName; } fullname() { return `${this.firstName} ${this.lastName}`; } ! }
52. class Person extends Actor { get name() { // return ... } set name(value) { // ... } }
53. (Fat) arrow functions
54. Account = (customer, cart) -> @customer = customer @cart = cart ! $('.cart').bind 'click', (event) => @customer.purchase @cart
55. function Account(customer, cart) { this.customer = customer; this.cart = cart; $('.cart').bind('click', (e) => { this.customer.purchase(this.cart); }); }
56. Default function parameters
57. fill = (liquid = "coffee") -> # ...
58. function fill(liquid = "coffee") { // ... }
59. Destructured assignment
60. [name, age] = ["John", 23] ! response = name: "John" email: "john@foo.com" age: 23 ! {name, age} = response
61. var options = { repeat: true, save: false }; ! var { repeat, save } = options;
62. var options = { repeat: true, save: false, rules: { custom: 10, } }; ! var { repeat, save, rules: { custom }} = options;
63. Rest and spread operators
64. String interpolation
65. What’s extra?
66. JavaScript (ECMAScript 5) JavaScript (ECMAScript 6) CoffeeScript
67. Block–scoped variables
68. var es = []; ! for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) { let c = i; es[i] = function () { console.log("ES" + c); }; } ! es[6](); // => ES6
69. const FOO = "bar"; ! console.log(FOO); // => "bar" ! FOO = "foo"; ! console.log(FOO); // => "bar" ! const FOO = "baz"; ! console.log(FOO); // => "bar"
70. Generators*
71. function* idMaker(){ var index = 0; while(true) yield index++; } ! var gen = idMaker(); ! console.log(gen.next().value); // 0 console.log(gen.next().value); // 1 console.log(gen.next().value); // 2
72. Modules
73. // file A: export const sqrt = Math.sqrt; export function square(x) { return x * x; } export function diag(x, y) { return sqrt(square(x) + square(y)); } ! // file B: import { square, diag } from 'lib'; console.log(square(11)); ! // file C: import * as lib from ‘lib'; console.log(lib.square(11));
74. Promises
75. function timeout(duration = 0) { return new Promise((resolve, reject) => { setTimeout(resolve, duration); }); } ! var p = timeout(1000).then(() => { return timeout(2000); }).then(() => { throw new Error("hmm"); }).catch(err => { return Promise.all([timeout(100), timeout(200)]); });
76. Sets and Maps
77. var s = new Set(); s.add(“a").add("b").add("a"); ! s.size === 2; s.has("a") === true;
78. var m = new Map(); m.set("hello", 42); ! m.set(s, 34); m.get(s) == 34;
79. Symbols
80. var firstName = Symbol(); var person = {}; ! person[firstName] = "Nicholas"; console.log(person[firstName]);
81. var firstName = Symbol(); var person = {}; ! person[firstName] = "Nicholas"; console.log(person[firstName]);
82. const MY_KEY = Symbol(); let obj = {}; ! obj[MY_KEY] = 123; console.log(obj[MY_KEY]);
83. const MY_KEY = Symbol(); ! let obj = { [MY_KEY]: 123 };
84. const FOO = Symbol(); ! let obj = { [FOO]() { return 'bar'; } }; ! console.log(obj[FOO]());
85. Iterables & for … of loops
86. let values = [1, 2, 3]; ! for (let i of values) { console.log(i); }
87. What’s missing?
88. JavaScript (ECMAScript 5) JavaScript (ECMAScript 6) CoffeeScript
89. List comprehension
90. say(letter) for letter in ['A', 'B']
91. johns = (n for n in ['John', 'Marcy'] when n is 'John')
92. users = john: 23, marcy: 29 ! ageReport = for name, age of users "#{name} is #{age}"
93. Whitespace sensitive
94. “Everything’s an expression” Implicit return
95. foo =-> "bar"
96. grade = (student) -> if student.excellentWork "A+" else if student.okayStuff if student.triedHard then "B" else "B-" else "C" eldest = if 24 > 21 then "Liz" else "Ike"
97. [lastName, age] = if name == 'John' then ['Doe', 23] else if name == 'Marcy' then ['Murcy', 29] else ['Unknown' ] ! console.log lastName, age
98. Postfix conditionals
99. console.log("42") if question is true
100. Operators and aliases
101. invite(user) if user? # typeof user !== "undefined" && user !== null ! ! name = userName ? 'John'
102. launch() if ignition is on ! volume = 10 if band isnt SpinalTap ! letTheWildRumpusBegin() unless answer is no ! letIn() if name in ['John', 'Marcy']
103. Ranges
104. countdown = (num for num in [10..1])
105. Verdict?
106. Try it now, switch later (where applicable)
107. “ But one thing is for certain: we must embrace the moving target.
