I've written an enormous amount of code in CoffeeScript since 2013, but have been migrating it to Typescript during the last year, after it became very clear that CoffeeScript is a dead end. One thing that helps a lot with all the braces (instead of whitespace) is using prettier. My editor is heavily integrated with prettier, so with the touch of a key my code is always formatted in some (almost) canonical way.
