Hi Shamil: Definitely food for thought. I am not familiar with asm.js but it is definitely worth investigating. Is it similar to args.js?: http://autographer.github.io/args.js/ I have been looking through the Dartjs system and like yourself have concerns with it. Google is obviously fully behind it but... I have been going through the examples and being intrigued by not only the access, as you would guess to Googles products, but the methods used to build web pages. First you create a simple web page layout, add an ID or two and then stuff the functional content directly into the page. Is this the new way to do web pages?...not that I find this bad; just different. Thoughts? http://runnable.com/UoLwdWnmMS0kAAAr/fetching-data-using-jsonp-with-dart2js I have been using Adobe's Dreamweaver for years but have recently have been just hand-coding. Maybe it is time to give Adobe's new web suite another chance? My direction, in development is going to be with products that run on all platforms. That may limit some applications but most companies are building systems that will support all environments. Observation: If I was starting out in the development business, I would be very hesitant to get too aligned with any particular company and would try to own any technology that I would base my career on. So without trying to label a particulars products potential, longevity or stability; "cautions" is the key word.

Both. But I'd bet on Visual Studio and Javascript and asm.js ( http://asmjs.org/spec/latest/ ). And I also like and I do plan to start using Adobe CC set of web development tools. :) Here is an interesting article on DART evolution and perspectives in ECMA standardization and becoming a mainstream technology - http://www.sdtimes.com/content/article.aspx?ArticleID=67591&page=1 I'd bet on (near future) browsers - all to have VMs for JavaScript, C#, DART, TypeScript, Python, Ruby, ... . I can be wrong but DART is currently looking as a step back to the compile time - static programming languages, while e.g. C# is evolving in the direction of dynamic languages, and has JIT special technologies to make even dynamic (late-binding) programming constructions to get JIT compiled and to be run as fast as compile time (C/C++, Pascal, Fortran, COBOL, ...) do. -- Shamil Saturday, January 18, 2014 9:18 PM -07:00 from Jim Lawrence <accessd at shaw.ca>: >Hi All: > >Google is now focusing on its new protocol/environment called Dart. It seems promising but I am always concerned when a company feels that it is in such a position of power that it is capable of forcing the market to comply with its objects. (The whole industry has already been set back a number of years as before another company decided it could rule them all and they could create standards without consultation.) > >I am as much intrigued as I am concerned at this point: > >http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/01/17/dart_1_1_matches_javascript > >Maybe your future on the net is Microsoft's Visual Studio or is it Google's Dart? > >https://www.dartlang.org/tools/ > >Jim
