Hey, it has macros! But it doesn't compile to coffeescript ... yet ...

http://haxe.org/manual/macros



What's the point of compiling to CoffeeScript when it compiles to JavaScript ?


Because trendy technologies.


Coffeescript is webscale.


I guess it could be useful if you wanted to switch from HAXE to Coffeescript.


It could be fun to have a CoffeeScript to Haxe converter, though.


Infinite loop of compilation! Haha


What would you do after compiling to coffeescript other than compile to javascript? It's not like you can persist changes that you make to the compiled coffeescript result between compiles.
