Coffeescript is not perfect, however, nowadays people went crazy for ES6&#x2F;ES2015, and suddenly nobody complains readability of babel output.<p>I&#x27;ve worked with both, ES6 is definitely a big progress on Coffeescript, but it takes like 80% of the things from coffee IMO, except the indentation syntax and list comprehension, added an `import` keyword.<p>My point is: don&#x27;t complain about coffeescript while cheer at ES6, they are mostly the same.
