In particular, will CoffeeScript ever output ES2015 JavaScript? Will it support modules, and if so, how? How will it handle near-equivalents—will it transpile fat arrows to fat arrows, or CoffeeScript’s `class` to ES2015’s `class`?

On the other hand, for the cause so-to-speak (after all CffSc is _just_ JS), it's worth emphasising that JS is an extremely powerful and flexible functional programming language.  This is what CoffeeScript benefits from."}}
