Using Sugar to Sweeten your Cup of Javascript
Posted by austin under Canada Tech Scene, Community, Montreal
Sébastien Pierre our lead interaction designer & interface developer for Project Ojibwe is going to attend Democamp CUSEC on Thursday and demo Sugar. Sugar is a one of the new tools he has developed and we are using internally on Project Ojibwe. Here is how he describes it,
Sugar is a syntax for a new meta-programming tool that allows you to create Domain Specific Languages (DSL) as well as custom general purpose languages that can be very easily translated to popular languages like Python, JavaScript and C. We use Sugar to do our JavaScript programming, bringing advanced language features such as full OOP, closures, iterators and type checking, and making sure we avoid common programmatic and syntactic mistakes.
Some of our team are going to be there to support him, so look for us and come by and say hi.
Project Ojibwe is also looking for top-notch Javascript/Python developers (more on this to come), so if you want to come introduce yourself and show off your Javascript kung-fu we would love to meet you.
