Can NoFlo components be written in pure JavaScript?

Can NoFlo components be written in pure JavaScript? 

I really don't like Coffee Script, and 99% of the open source stuff I use is in pure Java Script I don't want to look at Coffee Script.

Here's my answer:

NoFlo components are built as simple JavaScript or CoffeeScript classes that define the input and output ports, and register various event listeners on them.

There are other alternative Javascript FBP frameworks, those provide similar functionality as NoFlo. Node-RED was made for IoT, built on top on Node.js and written in pure javascript. http://nodered.org/?cm_mc_uid=07449484233014403767950&cm_mc_sid_50200000=1447301979

Yes  but node red networks are on horrible looking json. They collapse the formatting making them impossible to read.

Yes, CoffeeScript, JavaScript, and also with latest NoFlo versions, the ES6 variant of JavaScript.

Examples for each in https://github.com/noflo/noflo-ui/blob/master/elements/noflo-component-editor.html#L53
