WienerScript adds syntactic sugar to JavaScript that makes it less forgiving, more emotional, and even painful to write, allowing you to do less with more code. 

Common Viennese phrases and words act as intuitive replacements for common JavaScript keywords, operators, and more. You can continue to use raw JavaScript inside WienerScript, and the `wienerscript` transpiler will convert WienerScript code into raw JavaScript.

### Installation

WienerScript requires [Node.js and npm](https://nodejs.org/en/).

```
npm install -g wienerscript
```

or

```
yarn add global wienerscript
```

Usage:

```
wienerscript
```    

All files in that directory (and any subdirectories) that have a valid WienerScript file extensions (`.ws`) will be replaced by the transpiled contents of in the `/dist` directory.
Input files conventionally use the `.ws` extension and output files conventionally use the `.js` extension.

Examples can be found in the [examples](examples) directory.
