Interesting. I've held off creating anything serious in Dart because I'm waiting for it to be built into Chrome directly. I know compiling to JS is important, but I feel like other browsers will add Dart support shortly after Chrome, and in the meantime I'd use the Dart2js as a stopgap.

Both Microsoft and Apple have stated that they don't believe in the premise of Dart and the fact that Google designed it unilaterally doesn't help. Without Apple in particular (dominant mobile browser) any technology like this will never gain serious traction.
- myko 13y agoI realize that is their stance today, I just don't see it lasting. Dart seems like a huge improvement over JavaScript, and other browsers will need to catch up.
