What if you were to marry CoffeeScript to Node.js? You'd get one powerful tool for server-side JavaScript programming. This hands-on reference shows you how to build elegant and responsive Internet services by combining these two technologies - ideal whether you're coming from a traditional server-side language like PHP or Python, or from client-side JavaScript development.
CoffeeScript makes writing JavaScript applications easier, with less code and fewer errors. And Node.js is an event-based framework that enables you to write non-blocking Internet services.
Together, they're the dynamic duo.
With this book, you'll learn the programming aspects, project organization, and test automation required for building CoffeeScript applications on Node.js. All code is available in GitHub.
