CoffeeScript hits 1.0 -- Happy Holidays, HN
Things have come a long way in the past year, since this conversation:<p><a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1014080" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1014080</a><p>Some of the interesting recent features include executable class bodies, extended regular expressions, functions with default arguments, and YAML-style object literals.<p>Thanks for all the great suggestions and patches (almost a thousand Github issues, with many thousands of comments). The language has been very much a community driven project, and hopefully it reflects some significant part of the hard-earned wisdom of JavaScripters.
