List of languages that compile to JS

CoffeeScript Family (& Friends)

• CoffeeScript Unfancy JavaScript

Family (share genes with CoffeeScript)

• Coco A CoffeeScript dialect that aims to be more radical and practical, also acts as a test bed for features that get imported in CoffeeScript.
  • LiveScript is a fork of Coco that is much more compatible with CoffeeScript, more functional, and with more features.
• IcedCoffeeScript A CoffeeScript dialect that adds support for await and defer keywords which simplify async control flow.
• Parsec CoffeeScript CS based on parser combinators. The project's aim is to add static metaprogramming (i.e. macros + syntax extensibility) to Coffee Script (CS), similar to how Metalua adds such features to Lua. The resulting compiler, once merged with the official compiler, should be usable as a drop-in replacement for it.
• Contracts.coffee A dialect of CoffeeScript that adds built-in support for contracts.
• Uberscript, a CoffeeScript fork that adds type annotations which are compiled to Google closure compiler type annotation comments.
• ToffeeScript A dialect of CoffeeScript that support Asynchronous Syntax, Symbol and Regexp operator =~
• Caffeine A dialect of CoffeeScript that support packages and classes import, useful for browser applications
• heap.coffee A dialect of CoffeeScript that offers a C-like type system with manual memory management

Friends (philosophically related)

• JS11 JavaScript with augmented semicolon insertion, reduced punctuation, and limited sugar. Debugs line-for-line.
• Kaffeine Enhanced Syntax for JavaScript.
• Jack Making programming playful.
• move A simpler and cleaner programming language.
• Moescript Indent-based language
• pogoscript language that emphasises readability, handles async control flow nicely, is friendly to domain specific languages and compiles to regular JavaScript
• LispyScript A JavaScript with Lispy syntax and Macros.
• Sibilant JavaScript with a lisp.
