Hi Kyle, AtScript is NOT about building a new language.
Miško Hevery does address this concern right away in his Keynote on AtScript at ng-europe 2014: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGdnh8QSPPk&feature=youtu.be It is more an attempt to predict and create the future direction for JS (using "proven concepts and syntax" from Dart, TypeScript, and ES6). The goal is extend existing JS so we can build even better apps, but also support current eco-systems. The type system argument is mostly around scalability… yeah, not my favourite aspect of what is being proposed but reluctantly do see the benefits (especially around tooling and reading others code). Best regards, Richard.
