High-level comparison with Haxe:

EG and Haxe share: - compiles to Javascript - Macros - Pattern Matching - async/await (Haxe requires a 3rd party macro lib, but it integrates well)

EG has: - cleaner syntax - document-building DSL - "One of EG's primary goals is to be as compatible as possible with existing JavaScript libraries and frameworks and the node/iojs ecosystem." (Haxe makes compromises here to support other platforms)

Haxe has: - static type-checking - dead-code elimination - support for more platform targets (PHP, Python, C#, Java and more) - years of experience
