Comparison of CoffeeScript, TypeScript, and Dart as JavaScript alternatives. CoffeeScript offers Ruby/Python syntax with code reduction; TypeScript is strict superset with optional typing and IDE support; Dart includes VM for server apps and optional typing with Java-like syntax. All three improve function syntax.

A comprehensive endorsement of Yeoman as web application scaffolding tool. Explains how Yo generates project scaffolds, Bower manages packages, and Grunt handles builds. Covers live preview, compilation of CoffeeScript/SASS, minification, and deployment optimization.

Introducing CoffeeScript as a cleaner pre-compiled JavaScript alternative inspired by functional programming talks at No Fluff Just Stuff. Shows how CoffeeScript's concise syntax transforms Project Euler 001 solution into elegant functional code with range comprehension and arrow functions, compiling to clean JavaScript output.

Solving Project Euler problem 001 in multiple programming languages to maintain skills. The problem asks for sum of all multiples of 3 or 5 below 1000. Includes solutions in JavaScript (both original and ES6), Ruby, Groovy, and Python, with plans to add Clojure solutions for cross-language functional programming practice.

An exploration of NodeJS for building scalable real-time web applications using JavaScript's event-driven, non-blocking architecture. Includes a live example hosted on Heroku using HTML5 geolocation API with Express web framework and Socket.io for real-time client synchronization, plus mention of npm package manager.
