Show HN: Decaffeinate converts CoffeeScript projects to modern JS
I don&#x27;t understand the trend to move from Coffeescript to ES6.  I like both, but I write Coffeescript for its concision.  I have no issue compiling Coffeescript to ES6 as a separate build step, but I&#x27;m not going to write ES6 myself.  That said, I&#x27;m sure a project like Decaffeinate has brought a lot of beloved Coffeescript projects into the hands of ES6 developers who wanted to contribute.
