Ever dreamed of writing you next Rich Internet Application in Scala, enjoying all the Scala goodness, but not sacrificing JavaScript interoperability? Then come and meet Scala.js, a Scala to JavaScript compiler

Scala.js compiles full-fledged Scala code down to JavaScript, which can be integrated in your Web application. It provides very good interoperability with JavaScript code, both from Scala.js to JavaScript and vice versa. E.g., use jQuery and HTML5 from your Scala.js code, either in a typed or untyped way. Or create Scala.js objects and call their methods from JavaScript.

Other outstanding features include generation of Source Maps 2 for a smooth debugging experience, and integration with the Google Closure Compiler 3 for producing minimal code for production.
