Fun fact: on pre-release Angular 2 versions, Dart was it's main language. My hypothesis is that, if they decided to continue using Dart, probably we would have more Dart developers and this could have lead to a faster Flutter adoption.

Angular.js (aka Angular 1) had a Dart option for a long time, which was hardly used. If it were the only option, it'd have probably led to fewer Angular developers.

and/or less Angular 2 adoption.

angulardart (1) is still available, but probably not used by any serious project. Still have mixed feelings about dart - apparently some of the biggest frontends at Google (advertising) use this, so it must do something really good.

I'm not sure what you mean?AdWords uses AngularDart. It's the best-supported way to build a web app in Dart.

There was web UI framework churn in Dart's early years, but last I heard, Google has settled on AngularDart.
