LiveScript is a language which compiles to JavaScript. It has a straightforward mapping to JavaScript and allows you to write expressive code devoid of repetitive boilerplate. While LiveScript adds many features to assist in functional style programming, it also has many improvements for object oriented and imperative programming.
Prior to Node v5.10 (and v4.5) it's impossible to use Buffer.from for creating buffers from string.
Existence of Buffer.alloc implies the newer implementation of Buffer.from and possibility to use it with strings.
