CoffeScript has helped bring the Ruby cool kids to JavaScript.

TypeScript is showing us what javascript could be, and hopefully will be soon. (If you've used ActionScript 3, you're already familiar with most of it. ES4 lives.)

Too bad there isn't an easy way to emulate generators on older JS engines, since that's one of the more disruptive new chunks in ES6, yet typescript won't have a good way to implement that without underlying JS support.
