I'm in the same boat. Used it for a big project and now it's just cruft on my Javascript files. I have to continuously mentally process Javascript code I want to use from other libraries into its CS equivalent, and for what? All I get are list comprehensions and white space. I originally found it very appealing because I wasn't well acquainted with Javascript or its prototype class system, and so I didn't have that life-saving knee-jerk reaction about CS at all. I dove right in and used it extensively. After getting used to both JS and CS, I've realized that Coffeescript is at best a Javascript obfuscator. I understand the use of some layers on web tech. SASS is great. It introduces constructs that you legitimately can't get in CSS, like functions and variables. Coffeescript on the other hand is just a toy for the Python devs that are too lazy to properly learn Javascript. |
