If TypeScript is so great, how come all notable ReactJS projects use Babel?

Any tips on using Dart with mobile from Windows? I only need to target Android, not iOS.

I haven't touched Dart for over a year, but the Flutter page seems like it is on HTML, not native, and it only specifies Linux or OS X dev machine.

Looks like Flutter dev for Windows isn't ready yet, but is planned. I believe Flutter is native, check out the system architecture:

Yeah, I did finally, thanks!

I'm going to try it on my Linux box. The only disadvantage I can see for my eventual needs after a second reading is the lack of 3D support. I can get by with 2D for most of my stuff, but for games, I need the 3D hook.

I'll have to see how easy it is to customize the Dart-provided widgets. Might be easier than creating them from scratch in OpenGL via the NDK.

< I need the 3D hook

What about using a combination of StageXL and ThreeJS? Then use Cordova to package your HTML5-based app?
