What is a COFFEE file?

COFFEE files mostly belong to CoffeeScript by CoffeeScript Developers. A COFFEE file is a script written in CoffeeScript programming language. It contains variables, statements, and expressions which would be transpiled to JavaScript before it is deployed to production. CoffeScript syntax is, in most cases, similar to JavaScript. The main difference is that CoffeeScript offers a more readable and brief syntax. CoffeeScript also provides programming features such as list comprehension which isn't built into JavaScript. CoffeeScript is built into Rails framework. COFFEE files can be opened and edited with code editors such as VS Code and Sublime.
