TypesScript and CoffeeScript ports of the Meteor Leaderboard

TypesScript and CoffeeScript ports of the Meteor Leaderboard

A TypeScript port and a CoffeeScript port of the Meteor framework’s Leaderboard example.

Live demo at http://leaderboardtscs.meteor.com

The original Leaderboard has been enhanced with:

• Bootstrap styling.

• You can add and delete players.

• Login authentication.

• Drop-down menus to reset the data and sort players by name and score.

• Tooltips, modal dialogs, popup notifications.

• Meteorite smart packages.

Here’s a screenshot.

CSS is written using Less. The UI uses Twitter Bootstrap, Bootbox.js and toast.js.

Current version tested using:

• Meteor version 0.6.0

• Meteorite version 0.5.1

• TypeScript 0.8.3.0

• CoffeeScript version 1.6.2

• Jake 0.5.13

Installation

In addition to using built-in Meteor packages the project uses two Meteorite smart packages: 'bootboxjs' for modal dialogs and 'toastjs' for popup notifications.

Clone leaderboard from Github:

git clone git://github.com/srackham/leaderboard.git

The build process is managed by jake. Run jake build.ts to compile the TypeScript port or jake build.cs to compile the CoffeeScript port (choose one):

jake build.ts   # TypeScript
jake build.cs   # CoffeeScript

Now you can install and run using the Meteorite command:
