Great work! There are a couple of other projects like this. Are you familiar with Wisp or Outlet? This is good work; I've been trying to hack my own Lisp -> JS transpiler, and not having much work.

Your 'Nodes' file shows a strong familiarity with what's going on inside Coffeescript, too. :)

Thanks!

The thing is, Closer was created for use on CodeCombat, which expects the parse tree to be in the standard Mozilla AST format [1]. As far as I know, none of the projects you mention satisfy this requirement.

Actually it was lifted verbatim from [2] -- I just converted it to CoffeeScript :)

I don't know anything about Outlet, but the Wisp compiler actually makes use of Escodegen [1] – which expects input to be provided in the Mozilla AST format – to generate JavaScript. You can peek at writer.wisp [2] in the compiler codebase to see how it's done.
