TypeScript, Dart, CoffeeScript

By now it is clear to most people involved in software development
that JavaScript is a core language for making client side applications.
Over time this may extent to server scripts also.

But syntax of JavaScript, as well as tool support, is not what all developers want.
CoffeeScript is an elegant and smart pre-processor, that was even integrated to Ruby on Rails

Google engineers are making their own "Dart" pre-processor language for JavaScript,
and now Microsoft is also preparing "TypeScript" for the same purpose...

Why does TypeScript have to be the answer to anything? - Scott Hanselman
