CoffeeScript
CoffeeScript is a little language that compiles into JavaScript. Think of it as JavaScript's less ostentatious kid brother - the same genes, roughly the same height, but a different sense of style. Apart from a handful of bonus goodies, statements in CoffeeScript correspond one-to-one with their equivalent in JavaScript, it's just another way of saying it.
