So Google has golang, which seems to be great for some kinds of server-side development. Then it backs kotlin which is great for android development, and also embraced by large server-side framework such as Spring. Then it has Dart for flutter and cross-platform mobile development.
We're now at the point where google has 3 very good programming language, each successful in their initial environment, but are necesseraly going to try to reach out to the other's languages territory. Flutter / Fuchsia is supposed to replace Android, Dart is very interesting for server-side development, and Kotlin aims at "worldwide domination" since it's based on the JVM.
That's exciting, but also very confusing if you want to find the good environment to specialize in.
