For which use cases this compiler would be helpful? I believe python and JavaScript are typically used for different purposes.

That being said, it looks fantastic. :)

Disclaimer - I do not know JavaScript.

Better way of writing javascript (just like coffe script).

You can embed this in a web app and write your client-side code in python-syntax. Would work specially well if you server-side code is also in python.

This would be fantastic to write validation code, because the same code can be used on both the server and client sides. Thanks endian for sharing this with us, I can't wait to try it out!

PJ is a way to do your JavaScript coding using a less horrible syntax.
