Dart: Productive, Fast, Multi-Platform - Pick 3
summary
Dart claims to power Flutter with coordinated runtimes, compilers, libraries and language features that aim for productivity, speed, and multi‑platform output: a JIT VM for fast dev loops plus hot reload via a front-end server and kernel diffs, an AOT compiler for native performance, DDC and dart2js for web, and a Flutter‑for‑Web preview (Reflectly port took about “four beers”). Upcoming work includes non‑nullable types with migration tooling, extension methods, and a new FFI.
