I have to agree. Google suffers from a really bad case of ADHD when it comes to creating anything for consumption by outside developers...there is a long list and Dart and GWT are just two that stand out because there are large codebases out there that suffered because of these decisions.
Frankly, I'm surprised that Go has made it this far - I mean, it's a great language, I get it, but Google is fickle when it comes to things like this.
- andrewprock 7y agoIf you know that Go was designed as a migration path away from Python, it's a bit easier to understand why it's gotten so much support from Google.
- SaxonRobber 7y agoGo succeeded because it was largely ignored by Google. Dart was the darling language which flipped miserably and has only recently became relevant.
- pjmlp 7y agoDart's relevancy is heavily dependent on Flutter's success. Seeing how Chrome team pushes for PWAs, Android team woke up and is now delivering JetPack Composer, and we still don't know what is going to happen with Fuchsia, the question remains.
