If you want a sort of CoffeeScript experience instead of Java you can also go with Xtend [0]. It's supported best in Eclipse but I do find the cleaner syntax a bit more pleasing to work with. It's only transpiling to Java so you can even mix it with Java while updating an existing codebase or for whatever reason.
