Then I get the impression you are defending Dart just by inertia and not because you understand the problem, it is very common to see that in fanboys.

- dragonwriter 12y ago> Then I get the impression you are defending Dart just by inertia and not because you understand the problem I understand the complaint being made. And I explicitly note that there is a real trade-off. OTOH, I also recognize that there are real reasons why new languages don't spring into existence with complete language-native ecosystems on par with the most mature ecosystems in existence. > it is very common to see that in fanboys. I'm hardly a Dart fanboy. I think its a nice language that I'd rather work with than, say, JavaScript, and I like that someone is actually interested in challenging the assumption that JavaScript must be the one true language of the web, even if only as the common compilation target. But I don't have a real need for it, and its probably not even in the top 10 languages I'd use right now for a real project (though not having built-in JSON deserialization to user-defined classes isn't among the reasons why. Writing a converter to a custom type from the things it does deserialize JavaScript into isn't particularly challenging.)
