Thanks. I did try Dart and our team spent a full month giving it our best for our client.

It was a dream to use compared to JS. One show-stopper though: browser support. At the time, IE11 was just released and Dart had issues with IE11. Also, the Dart supported browser window is only the latest 2 versions of a given browser.

This totally killed our Dart prospects, as our target users in our business are generally non-tech savvy and we need to support older browsers like IE8/IE9.

I hope we all will be able to target evergreen browsers sooner rather than later. Microsoft seems to go into the right direction at least.
