You can call CoffeeScript functions from JavaScript and vice versa. There's no reason that you can't use the UI library from code written in JS. The fact that its written in CoffeeScript is an implementation detail

Inheritance. DOM element functions. Gee, I must have never tried this and have no idea what I'm talking about right?

I tell you what, you try it and tell me how it goes for you?

It's really not that simple.

But all the docs are in Coffeescript, and it's quite hostile to a new dev.
Grab a cup of coffee, start reading the CoffeeScript documentation. Your coffee won't even by cold by the time you finish with it. Start coding.

Seriously, CofeeScript is tiny.
