jashkenas--coffeescript/documentation/sections/breaking_changes_literate_coffeescript.md
Geoffrey Booth b28e398396 [CS2] Docs updates (#4536)
* Docs: named functions and function declarations

* No more prototypal `extends`; update docs and example

* More comprehensive documentation of the existential operator; closes #1631

* Better document operators, including `from`

* No fat arrow class methods anymore

* Destructuring shouldn’t say that default values are applied in case of undefined or null

* Spinoff generator and async functions into their own sections; reorder things so that the sections on functions come just before classes, and destructuring goes next to the operators (which discuss assignment)

* Rewrite “CoffeeScript 2” section, making it less practical and more explanatory; move practical info into “Usage”

* Update “Variable Scoping and Lexical Safety” section to remove incorrect reference to Ruby (fixes #2360), add missing details about the safety wrapper, add note about `let`/`const`.

* Updated browser compiler

* Updated docs

* Rewrite Literate CoffeeScript breaking changes

* Split apart the “Breaking Changes” and “Unsupported Features” sections into separate sidebar items and files

* Add example of `not in`, closes #3281

* Fix words in bold that should be in backticks

* Consolidate some breaking changes sections

* Add Node API documentation; closes #3551

* Move the chaining documentation out of the changelog into its own section

Literate CoffeeScript parsing

CoffeeScript 2s parsing of Literate CoffeeScript has been refactored to now be more careful about not treating indented lists as code blocks; but this means that all code blocks (unless they are to be interpreted as comments) must be separated by at least one blank line from lists.

Code blocks should also now maintain a consistent indentation level—so an indentation of one tab (or whatever you consider to be a tab stop, like 2 spaces or 4 spaces) should be treated as your codes “left margin,” with all code in the file relative to that column.

Code blocks that you want to be part of the commentary, and not executed, must have at least one line (ideally the first line of the block) completely unindented.
