Isn't Google using Dart internally ? From what I've seen all their NG2 projects use the Dart version and their Material design component lib is Dart ?
So if what you were saying was true they would dump the TS/JS version and migrate the team to work on the Dart version 100% and not maintain two separate code bases (like they are now after the Dart/TS source split) and wouldn't even bother with the Material design for TS ?
Honestly I'm not even sure why Google is spending all this effort on the ng2 TS/JS as what I said above would make more business sense - I doubt that ng2 is making them any money if they aren't using it (I'm talking about the TS version).

Many, many significant apps (think Adwords, Adsense, Google Fiber, and a pile more) are shipping on AngularDart 2.0 today. It's not accurate to say that AngularDart exists first and foremost to meet the needs of one internal team - it exists to provide a great framework for apps of this type (significant, complex web apps). We think we're making pretty awesome progress here - we've been able to dramatically increase velocity since the source split (a couple of months ago), and have made really large improvements already in application performance and in shrinking the size of the compiled JS for AngularDart apps.
- rubber_duck 10y agoI was just saying if OP criticism about Google only caring about internal use was true Angular Dart would be the only ng2 supported by Google, not suggesting that's being developed for Google only, I'm actually a fan of both Dart and AngularDart so gj from me :)
