There is; but some devices aren't listed on Amazon and the prices can vary a lot. I think trying to show reasonable prices is a can of worms I don't want to open; especially given the little variance between them (ignoring the Pix

Glad you like it! Seems there's a market for decent spec Chromebook's that don't cost an arm and a leg like the Pixel :( Building this table also confirmed that what I want doesn't exist!

Thanks; glad it's useful! I'm after something decent (4GB/1080p), but after compiling this chart, it's starting to look like what I want won't be available in the UK until early 2015! ;(

I'm hoping it'll be easier to add more countries now it's all in a Google Doc (previously it was a pain); but it somewhat relies on being able to easily find the data :(

I don't think there's enough variance in price (Except for the Pixel) that it's a huge factor. My goal was to help people in my shoes, that have some requirements (1080p, 4GB, decent processor) to filter down the available li

Sorry if it seemed that way; it's not an attempt to make money, but be something useful. Products are listed regardless of whether they're listed on Amazon and I'm working on a tweak to show links to Google Play etc where ava

I do have RRP on my todo list, but I don't want to list "current retail" prices because they're constantly changing; and the focus is more on helping people filter the list of options than to be a price comparison.

I'm after a new Chromebook, and couldn't find a nice easy way to whittle the list down to just those that matched my requirements and available in the UK. I started building a table, and decided it could be useful to others; so th

Not really; I was highlighting that every editor is not going to add support for every new javascript framework's proprietary implementations. There are tons of tools out there for JavaScript that you can run on any plain JavaScript, a

I mentioned this in my post; you don't have to use JSX (I'd advise against JSX), but building html-representing classes in JS seems a far better idea to me.

Sorry I didn't identify these; it's rather difficult to know who's on the Dart Team, especially if the profiles aren't linked to profiles. It's rather hard to tell when someone is being a "helpful user" vs

I did; but it makes no sense. That's like saying "Why does Dart even both having classes"?. If you're writing a client application, you probably have data structures. Some of those data structures you need to send to the

The reason for a rewrite is beyond the scope of Dart supporting sane serialisation. There are many reasons; but here is not an appropriate place to detail them.

Depends on your definition of "supported"? JSON uses maps (throwing away one of the big advantages of Dart) and the Serialisation package appears to rely on hard-coded rules or use mirrors (which are slow and apparently not a good

There are lots of details about what we're rewriting any why that aren't really relevant to this discussion. I'm (we're) not against 3rd party libraries; but we'd like to minimise our use of them because we're

Does this not sound like a rather complicated thing for the individual developers to do when 99% of Dart web apps will need to do this?
