Wow, some of these features sound really cool!

As a small complaint: After seeing about a dozen compile-to-JS languages, I don't care about the full list of features anymore. Please add a big note at the top saying how this is different from other compile to JS languages. Why save all the good stuff (typing, promises, currying) for the last half of this massive page?

I second that, just WOW. Someone wasn't satisfied with removing semicolons and curly braces and fixed the ENTIRE language instead. WOW!!
