17:30-20:00 - Welcome to the Dart (https://www.dartlang.org/) Flight School

Dart is a new web development platform built around a programming language that is unsurprising and familiar, yet powerful and expressive. It comes with libraries for client and server side development, a set of tools that make working on a large Dart application easier, and can be deployed on the modern web via compilation to JavaScript.

During this Dart Flight School we will cover the following facets of the Dart platform:

Dart language and its core libraries

This session gives an introduction to the Dart language and core libraries.

dart2js compiler

Dart-to-JavaScript compilation is an important part of Dart’s deployment story as it allows it to run in any modern browser. This session goes into the details of how the dart2js compiler achieves good performance and output size.

Polymer.dart

Dart strives to fully leverage the evolving web platform on modern browsers. This session presents the Polymer.dart framework which enables building structured, encapsulated, client-side web apps with Dart and web components.

Dart VM

Dart was designed to provide an unsurprising and stable performance. This talk describes native Dart Virtual Machine and how our experience with the V8 JavaScript Engine influenced both language design and the Dart VM implementation.
