What is your opinion on Dart? I could see Google encouraging devs to learn Dart and make Flutter apps soon. Probably at I/O.

- pjmlp 10y agoIt is not Google encouraging devs, it is the Dart team looking for reasons to keep going, besides Ad Words. Just go watch any Android Fireside at Google IO or the responses of Android team at Reddit. Java is Android's language, with C and C++ just being there to the extent of implementing Java native methods, low latency code and code from other platforms, not full blown access to the OS APIs. As an example of an discussion regarding Scala, after their annoucement to ditch Jack and start anew their cherry picked features from Java 8. "Java is the language we officially support." https://www.reddit.com/r/androiddev/comments/5zf1xo/future_of_java_8_language_feature_support_on/deyyp0n/ https://www.reddit.com/r/androiddev/comments/5zf1xo/future_o...
- remir 10y agoYeah but what about Flutter? It's even part of Fuchsia, their new OS.
