js2js: why so serious?

JavaScript is the Assembly of the Web. There are dozens of tools that compile some programming language to JavaScript. You can do it with C++, Java, C#, Python, Ruby or plenty of other languages. It seems that there's one language that remains to be covered for JavaScript to dominate the world: JavaScript itself.

Last week we were joking about this and decided to fix this situation. Meet js2js, a revolutionary open-source compiler that transforms JavaScript directly to JavaScript! Have fun!
