I'm in the early stages of something "real", and I'm finding it very useful. I think if someone is already very familiar with and is mostly happy with JavaScript and its ecosystem, they might not see much of value (or maybe they would). For me, however, I can get small things done in JavaScript but tend to be overwhelmed by the ecosystem, and I'm far more comfortable in Dart. The core libraries are great, and having class-based object-orientation makes me much more comfortable than the prototype stuff in JavaScript.
