Languages and frameworks: CoffeeScript

Last modified: 22 November 2024

With JetBrains Rider, you can use CoffeeScript that compiles into JavaScript. JetBrains Rider recognizes *.coffee files and marks them with the CoffeeScript icon. You can set breakpoints directly in your CoffeeScript code, and JetBrains Rider recognizes them using source maps generated during compilation.

JetBrains Rider helps you write CoffeeScript code by suggesting completion for keywords, labels, variables, parameters and functions. You can jump from a symbol to its declaration F12 or implementation AltEnd as well as find any symbol by its name CtrlAltShift0T.

JetBrains Rider integrates with the coffeescript compiler that translates CoffeeScript code into JavaScript. The tool also creates source maps that set correspondence between lines in your CoffeeScript code and in the generated JavaScript code so that JetBrains Rider debugger recognizes breakpoints in your CoffeeScript code and processes them correctly.
