In 2009 Jeremy Ashkenas created CoffeeScript, a programming language that compiles into JavaScript, called CoffeeScript. It was the first to present the concept of creating a function without a superfluous keyword function, replacing it with something that in 2015 was to become the function arrow (=> in ES6, -> in CoffeeScript).
