I wouldn't compare it to Java and I wouldn't say its verbose either, its
expressiveness is close to D . It is a full dynamic language with all
the benefit and safety of static typing through type inference. You can
use it object oriented or functional. It has a fantastic remoting
framework with type checking at compile time! cross platform - no other
language has this to offer.

CoffeeScript is just a JavaScript alternative without a real benefit.
HaXe is a complete framework.
