I do not work at Google and yes, I love Dart. By following Seth's work for two years and a half, it is obvious to me that he loves Dart.

Why do I love Dart? As a developer and a university professor, for the first time in my long career, I can do the following with Dart:

I can use Dart both on the client and on the server; with Dart, I can apply both object-oriented and functional way of programming.

I can develop in Dart and deploy applications in JavaScript.

I can be a productive developer with many Dart tools and libraries, and get a very good performance in either Dart applications or their JavaScript versions.

I can start developing a prototype without data types and introduce them when I need to convert the prototype to a deployable application.

I can use Dart for both synchronous and asynchronous programming.

I can use many publicly available packages and reuse their libraries.

I can be a web engineer on the client-side and a software engineer on the server-side, with the same language and many reusable libraries.
