Been using typescript, I actually really like it
it's built on javascript and it still feels like javascript, just augmented to meet real world needs

If you are working with React-Redux: Elm.
If you just want javascript but slightly less retarded: Typescript.
If you need something reliable for massive webapps: ScalaJS.
If you like LISP: ClojureScript
If you like Haskell: Purescript.
If you like Ocaml: Bucklescript

Thank you.

Compile Ocaml or ReasonML to JS with bucklescript. I really wish the ML family was more popular. Facebook is developing two ML based languages so I'm hoping they can push it mainstream.

this looks interesting, im gonna check it

Best answer. Btw Typescript is shit, the typechecker is completely unsound, hardly even tries.

Coffeescript by far. Most of the Ecmascript 6 improvements are a rip off from Coffeescript. Much of Julia's syntax, especially mapping methods are heavily influenced by Coffeescript. Coffeescript would be the perfect scripting language if it were to become a standalone scripting language and not just a transpiler

This. The ? coalescing operator destroys a whole lot of crappy boilerplate all by itself.

Clojurescript is fucking amazing. Elm is dope too.
