Use CoffeeScript to Write Better JavaScript Code Than Ever Before!

If you can do it in JavaScript, you can do it better in CoffeeScript. And, since CoffeeScript compiles down to JavaScript, your code will fit neatly into virtually any web environment. In Programming in CoffeeScript, Mark Bates shows web developers why CoffeeScript is so useful and how it avoids the problems that often make JavaScript code buggy and unmanageable. He guides you through every feature and technique you need to write quality CoffeeScript code and shows how to take advantage of CoffeeScripts increasingly robust toolset.

Bates begins with the absolute basics of running and compiling CoffeeScript and then introduces syntax, control structures, functions, collections, and classes. Through same page code comparisons, youll discover exactly how CoffeeScript improves on JavaScript. Next, youll put it to work in building applications that are powerful, flexible, maintainable, concise, reliable, and secure. Bates shares valuable tips for better development, illuminating CoffeeScripts hidden gems and warning you about its remaining rough edges. The book concludes with a start-to-finish application case study showing how to code back-ends and front-ends and integrate powerful frameworks and libraries. Coverage includes

  • Understanding the right ways to compile and execute CoffeeScript
  • Using CoffeeScripts clean syntax to focus on your code, not JavaScripts distractions
  • Working with CoffeeScripts control structures, functions, and arguments
  • Taking full advantage of CoffeeScripts implementation of collections and iterators
  • Leveraging CoffeeScripts full class support to create complex data models
  • Automating common application development tasks with Cake and Cakefiles
  • Configuring Jasmine with CoffeeScript support, and using it to systematically test your code
  • Writing Node.js server-side applications in CoffeeScript
  • Using CoffeeScript to write jQuery and Backbone.js applications
  • Integrating framework code to avoid reinventing the wheel

Want a better way to create the JavaScript code your web applications need? CoffeeScript is the solutionand this book will help you master it!

I said it in my first book, and Ill say it again here: Writing a book is incredibly hard work! Please make sure no one ever tells you differently. If they do, they are either an incredible liar or Stephen King. Fortunately for me I fall somewhere in the middle.

Writing a book is simultaneously a very independent and solitary activity, as well as a team effort. After I put the kids to bed, I head down to my office, crack open a few Guinesses (is the plural Guinei?), crank up the tunes, and work, by myself, into the wee hours of the morning. When I finish a chapter, I send it off to my editor, who then sends it off to a bunch of people who take what I have written and improve it in ways that I didnt know possible. Whether its as simple as correcting grammar or spelling mistakes, to something more complex such as helping to improve the flow of the book, or point out where example code could be improved to further clarify a point. So, while the writing may be done alone in a dark room by yours truly, the final product is the culmination of many peoples hard work.

In this section of the book, I get the chance to say thank you to those who help shape, define, and otherwise ensure that the book you are currently holding (or downloading) is of the highest quality it can be. So without further adieu Im going to thank people Academy Awards style, knowing that Im sure Ive left someone off the list, for which I am incredibly sorry.

First and foremost I have to thank my beautiful wife, Rachel. Rachel is one of the most supportive and strong people I have ever met. Each night I get to crawl into bed beside her and each morning I get the joy of waking up next to her. I have the pleasure of staring into her eyes and seeing unconditional love there. I also get the encouragement to write books, start my own business, and to do whatever it is that will make me happiest in life. She gave me two handsome sons and in return Ive given her bad jokes and my used cell phones. I clearly got the better end of the bargain in this marriage, and for that I am eternally grateful.

Next, I would like to thank my sons, Dylan and Leo. While neither of them directly contributed to this book, they do make life worth living and they give my life an energy and excitement that only children can. I love you boys both so very much.

Before moving off the subject of my family, I would like to thank my parents (especially you Mom!) and the rest of my family for always being there to both simultaneously support me and cut me down to size. I love you all.

Next I have to thank Debra Williams Cauley. Debra was my editor, handler, and psychiatrist on my first book, Distributed Programming with Ruby. I can only hope that other authors have the fortune to work with an editor as good as Debra. She truly has the patience of a saint. I hope that should I ever write another book, Debra will be right there with me. I cant imagine writing a book without her. Thank you, Debra.

When writing a technical book, there are people that are very important to the process; they are the technical reviewers. A technical reviewers job is to read each chapter and critique it from a technical standpoint, as well as answer the question, Does it make sense to learn this here? These reviewers are there to act as your audience. They are technically minded and know their subject. Therefore, the feedback that you get from them is incredibly important. On this book there have a been a few technical reviewers. But the two I really want to call out are Stuart Garner and Dan Pickett. Stuart and Dan went way above the call of duty on this book and were by no means afraid of telling me when I did or said something boneheaded. They received frantic phone calls and emails from me at all hours of the day and night and responded with amazing feedback. If I didnt want all those sweet royalty checks all to myself I mightve been tempted to cut them in. (Dont worry, they got paid for their work. They each received a coupon for one free hour of Mark time.) Thank you Dan and Stuart, and the rest of the technical reviewers, for all of your hard work.
