Everything old is new again.

I have had a non-trivial experience with CoffeeScript. Maybe one can find the syntax easier on the eye, but it is always at the cost of added ambiguity, both for the parser and the reader.

After one too many parsing error debug session in CS, I just moved back to plain JS (later, TS), only to be happy with it ever after. to the point that after this comment, I won’t even consider trying Civet further than their homepage.
