* 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

If, Else, Unless, and Conditional Assignment
if/else statements can be written without the use of parentheses and curly brackets. As with functions and other block expressions, multi-line conditionals are delimited by indentation. There’s also a handy postfix form, with the if or unless at the end.
CoffeeScript can compile if statements into JavaScript expressions, using the ternary operator when possible, and closure wrapping otherwise. There is no explicit ternary statement in CoffeeScript — you simply use a regular if statement on a single line.
