What's the state of this project? #361

Closed hsingh23 closed 8 years ago

hsingh23 commented 8 years ago

Is this the recommended version of coffescript? will it replace the current coffeescript? will there be more releases? Is there a maintainer for this project?

deltaidea commented 8 years ago

See #336.

Anyone is free to work on this project. I stopped working on it after a disagreement between myself and the other CoffeeScript maintainers [...]. I don't see a future for the CoffeeScript language without adoption of ES6 features. Unfortunately, I was the only one that believed we should adopt the semantics of any equivalent features in ES6 [...]. So because I no longer use the language for my own projects, I am not motivated to work on it. But there's nothing stopping anyone from opening issues and sending PRs.

TL;DR: It's dead.

w.r.t adopting ES6 features, I'll be announcing something in a month or few.

(I hope CoffeeScript doesn’t die—it’s by far my favorite language right now.)
