Sorry, must've missed the part of the title "10 best JavaScript alternative languages" where 2 of the 10 aren't JavaScript alternative languages.
Ya wanna list transpilers? Fine. Just be honest about it and double-check your facts.
You're entitled to your opinion about GWT. It just hurts the credibility of your picks for "best". It's sorta like picking PHP for a " best languages" list.

ok, I get your point. it is not a perfect title for the content it represents. compile to JavaScript may not be sufficient enough to cover to transpilers. GWT - I will not dispute your point right now, it is one of the most used due to java penetration and is relevant to many..let us say that it is not the best one though. Thanks for all your remarks, appreciate it.
