This might not be obvious in anyway if you’re not pretty deep in the Dart ecosystem but I’ve never seen anyone pay as much attention about building a good long term language as that team. They put crazy amounts of thought and effort into ho

For what it’s worth Dart is hands down the nicest OOP language I’ve ever used in my opinion. It’s like they took all the good things about JS and Java and cut out all the bad parts. What’s left is basically Dart.

Agree with you that IRL it’s more complicated than just 3 points but am writing this for an audience of developers and tech folk so figured simplicity was more important than exhaustiveness but is otherwise generally accurate as a high leve

As someone who works in that industry my overwhelming feeling after reading that article is that it’s largely junk for a couple of reasons. Without going super deep into the specifics they do make one good point that I agree with which is u

Web support is early days at the moment and right now but you can take a look here https://gallery.flutter.dev/ to see for yourself where it’s at. I’ve seen hints of the medium term plan however which is AFAIK move from opt

That was true for a while but no longer. Not sure when you last tried it but maybe take a look here especially in the section of the readme where it has downloads for platform specific sample apps https://github.com/flutter&

Flutter is the most obvious answer here to me. Very modern, cross platform (windows, mac, linux, fuchsia, iOS, android, web and embedded devices), excellent tooling / developer experience, outputs to native compiled code, battle teste

Never worked with GraphQL only gRPC which in my setup at least has an extremely tight feedback look in that code gen is almost instant and triggered on a file save of a proto file (which is where you define your interfaces in that particula

I think maybe that’s the part I’m not getting. I don’t have a problem with the code generation personally, if anything I appreciate having something I can go and inspect if things go wrong so avoiding it isn’t an obvious plus to me.

Not looking to actively bash anyones work here but I’m really confused on the value proposition here over something like gRPC which has a lot of substantial advantages from speed, to wide cross language support and has been battle tested in

I would second this. Side by side I put the GCP ecosystem several years in front of the other major ones AWS & Azure in terms of capabilities and even general day to day experience. As for OP you might want to take a look at a combinati

I’m not sure what you’re referring to here honestly but React is substantially behind web components in terms of every performance metric I can think of. Boot up, runtime, micro benchmarks and at scale.

npm init @open-wc is a really nice starting point for Lit also mentioned here https://lit.dev/docs/tools/starter-kits/

Maybe this is less obvious if you’re deep in the React ecosystem and nothing else but I’d argue that React is already in early stages of a death spiral for a few reasons. These mostly come down to 1. It’s no longer the fastest, in fact it’s

Interestingly enough Dart is also pretty deep into adding WASM as a compile target to act as an alternative to the current compile to optimised JS approach they do currently in the browser. You are right though they are going to be the firs
