I’d rather use JavaScript than CoffeeScript for Atom development right now. I know that’s an issue that’s been discussed to death, so I’m not looking for flames. I’m looking for documentation, tutorials and examples for Atom development in JavaScript.
When I learned CSS, I wrote in CSS until I was comfortable enough with it to start to use Sass and/or LESS. It would have been awkward learning Sass without having first learned CSS. And the same seems to apply here - I need to get up to speed in JavaScript before tackling CoffeeScript.
So, pointers for JavaScript newbies wanting to create things for Atom?
