What’s Next
The ability to compile Dart into JavaScript means that we do not have to wait for a tipping point of browser support before enjoying the power of Dart. Today, we can start writing web applications in Dart and expect that they will work for everyone. Plus, we can leverage existing codebases in JavaScript with ease. JavaScript compatibility is a good thing because, in the next chapters, we will be taking our simple Dart application to the next level and we wouldn’t want to leave our nonhipster friends too far behind.
