Overview of Paramour

Paramour is a client-side, preprocessed JavaScript language. It is based on CoffeeScript, Java, Python, Swift, and JavaScript. Paramour lets you do what you want, when you need.

If you're new to JavaScript, W3Schools offers a host of tutorials. (Note that this service was not developed by and is not associated with myself.)

Why Paramour?

Paramour is extremely flexible and powerful, you can:

• Use Tuples.
• Perform unit testing (JS-Unit).
• Write type controlled functions.
• Run Paramour outside of a browser.

For a demo of Paramour in action, try a 5-minute demo:

• 99 Bottles of Beer: See how easy the infamous 99 bottles song can be.
• The Tuple Class: See how the Tuple class was made.
