JSY is an indented (offside) JavaScript dialect. We believe indentation is better at describing code blocks instead of painstakingly matching open/close sections { } () [].

Think modern JavaScript — ES6, ES2018 — indented similar to Python or CoffeeScript.

Inspired by Wisp, JSY primarily operates as a scanner-pass syntax transformation to change indented (offside) code into the corresponding open/close matching token code. Thus the internal scanning parser only has to be aware of /* comments */ and "string literals" rules to successfully transform code. Thus, as a JavaScript dialect, JSY automatically keeps pace with modern JavaScript editions!

JSY has over 6,000 JSY unit tests to insure consistency and stability.
