Google traceur-compiler – Googles vehicle for Javascript Language Design Experimentation

Traceur compiler is a compiler for javascript with expension. It’s a way to experiment around some interesting ECMAscript Harmony proposals. This proposals are not going to disturb C# programers at all (class, yield, await, block scoped bindings, default parameters, params).

Remark: yield syntax should be taken into account by C# when dealing with yielding Iterators (yield*). This have already been exercice by Matthieu Mezil with Roselyn in C# compiler improvements.
