A statically typed language with a very powerful yet simple to understand type system, that compiles to JavaScript, so you can have all the benefits of type safety, OOP and FP on the browser and/or node.js, as well as the JVM.
SpecsUpdate
Pros
Pro Write server side and client side in the same language
Ceylon compiles to multiple backends: JavaScript, the Java Virtual Machine, and hopefully soon Dart as well. This allows you to write server-side and client-side code in the same language, reusing code between the two sides as appropriate.
Pro Good IDE support, fast compiler
Ceylon has its own SDK compiled to JS so it's really multi-platform.
Pro A great module system that interoperates with npm
Modularity is integrated into the language and tooling.
Pro Interoperation with native JavaScript
Even though it's primarily a statically-typed language, Ceylon has special language-level support for interoperation with dynamically typed languages like JavaScript.
