All someone has to do is write a JS->brainfuck transpiler and we could have this.

I'd really like to see that. I'm eager to build a small program that takes style offenses like nested ternary operators and replaces them with a still functional brainfuck equivalent, to highlight how anoying that style of programming is to read.
Thats hilarious lol Or some of those rediculously dense ruby one liners could fit the bill too.
How about one where style pages via bf->js->sass->css
I mean yeah but this is javascript. Only 3 phases of transpilation is for noobs.

brainfuck->typescript->es6->via babel->es5->postCss plugins->sass->css->transpiled to react components->transpiled to an Angular 2 project->to webcomponents->transpiled to ArnoldC language->transpiled to a Turing complete Shopify liquid template-> commonjs and browserified->rails sprocket pipeline->then piped to /dev/null

It's not easy being a Javascript Ninja/Rockstar.

the pipe to /dev/null made it all worth it
