Technically, coffe-script can be used for back end as well as front end with node. I believe this is how original version of trello was written (at least in back end they used coffee script). Also github uses it in similar ways — atom editor code is primarily in coffee script.

Except that, I agree completely, putting JavaScript as the language is kind of stupid as it was clearly not designed for that purpose.
