Books and Screencasts
</h2>
<p>
There are a number of excellent books and screencasts to help you get
started with CoffeeScript, some of which are freely available online.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<a href="http://arcturo.github.com/library/coffeescript/">The Little Book on CoffeeScript</a>
is a brief 5-chapter introduction to CoffeeScript, written with great
clarity and precision by
<a href="http://alexmaccaw.co.uk/">Alex MacCaw</a>.
</li>
<li>
<a href="http://autotelicum.github.com/Smooth-CoffeeScript/">Smooth CoffeeScript</a>
is a reimagination of the excellent book
<a href="http://eloquentjavascript.net/">Eloquent JavaScript</a>, as if
it had been written in CoffeeScript instead. Covers language features
as well a the functional and object oriented programming styles. By
<a href="https://github.com/autotelicum">E. Hoigaard</a>.
</li>
<li>
<a href="http://pragprog.com/book/tbcoffee/coffeescript">CoffeeScript: Accelerated JavaScript Development</a>
is <a href="http://trevorburnham.com/">Trevor Burnham</a>'s thorough
introduction to the language. By the end of the book, you'll have built
a fast-paced multiplayer word game, writing both the client-side and Node.js
portions in CoffeeScript.
</li>
<li>
<a href="http://peepcode.com/products/coffeescript">Meet CoffeeScript</a>
is a 75-minute long screencast by <a href="http://peepcode.com/">PeepCode</a>.
Highly memorable for its animations which demonstrate transforming CoffeeScript
into the equivalent JS.
</li>
<li>
If you're looking for less of a time commitment, RailsCasts'
<a href="http://railscasts.com/episodes/267-coffeescript-basics">CoffeeScript Basics</a>
should have you covered, hitting all of the important notes about CoffeeScript
in 11 minutes.
</li>
</ul>
