CoffeeScript is a real-world coding language that is taught in several of CodeMonkey's courses. While there are many coding languages to choose from, CoffeeScript is the perfect language for kids and beginners to learn since it has many real-life uses yet it remains intuitive to learn. CoffeeScript is similar to JavaScript in that it is primarily used for web applications, however, it has a much friendlier syntax that resembles the way we write in English. 

JavaScript Code Example:

describe('panda', function(){

  it('is happy', function(){

    panda.should.be("happy")

   });

}):

CoffeeScript Code Example:

describe 'panda', ->

  it 'is happy', ->

    panda.should.be("happy")
