Dart died when Chrome competitors - mostly Mozilla at the time - refused to include another VM in the browser. On the one hand I think it’s a shame because Dart is much better than even the last version of JS. On the other hand wasm and transpiling solved a lot of the issues Dart was trying to solve with less fragmentation so all things considered maybe it was the right decision.

It was only available in special “Dartium” builds because the Chrome team didn’t want it either. https://news.dartlang.org/2012/04/dartium-for-windows-now-available.html https://news.dartlang.org/2012/04/dartium-for-windows-now-av...
