Dart is a client-optimized language for fast apps on any platform.

---

 

 Why? 

 Google’s Dart programming language seemed ready to take on JavaScript as the default language of the web. Google was even going to give it equal billing with JavaScript in its Chrome browser. But by the time Dart was ready for prime time, JavaScript — and the massive ecosystem around it — was already miles ahead.

 About a year and a half ago, Google gave up on the idea of Dart as a direct JavaScript competitor and instead repositioned it as a compile-to-JavaScript language along the lines of TypeScript or CoffeeScript.

 

 

 What? 

 Dart is a client-optimized programming language for fast apps on multiple platforms. And it is designed more towards UI and consumer app development.

 Dart is an object-oriented, class defined, garbage-collected language using a C-style syntax that transcompiles optionally into JavaScript. It supports interfaces, mixins, abstract classes, reified generics, static typing, and a sound type system.

 

 

 Pros 

● Optimized for UI

 - Develop with a programming language specialized around the needs of user interface creation

● Productive development

 - Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app

● Fast on all platforms

 - Compile to ARM & x64 machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Or compile to JavaScript for the web
