* Docs: named functions and function declarations * No more prototypal `extends`; update docs and example * More comprehensive documentation of the existential operator; closes #1631 * Better document operators, including `from` * No fat arrow class methods anymore * Destructuring shouldn’t say that default values are applied in case of undefined or null * Spinoff generator and async functions into their own sections; reorder things so that the sections on functions come just before classes, and destructuring goes next to the operators (which discuss assignment) * Rewrite “CoffeeScript 2” section, making it less practical and more explanatory; move practical info into “Usage” * Update “Variable Scoping and Lexical Safety” section to remove incorrect reference to Ruby (fixes #2360), add missing details about the safety wrapper, add note about `let`/`const`. * Updated browser compiler * Updated docs * Rewrite Literate CoffeeScript breaking changes * Split apart the “Breaking Changes” and “Unsupported Features” sections into separate sidebar items and files * Add example of `not in`, closes #3281 * Fix words in bold that should be in backticks * Consolidate some breaking changes sections * Add Node API documentation; closes #3551 * Move the chaining documentation out of the changelog into its own section

get and set keyword shorthand syntax
get and set, as keywords preceding functions or class methods, are intentionally unimplemented in CoffeeScript.
This is to avoid grammatical ambiguity, since in CoffeeScript such a construct looks identical to a function call (e.g. get(function foo() {})); and because there is an alternate syntax that is slightly more verbose but just as effective:
codeFor('get_set', 'screen.height')
