Dart and its dynamism are one of the hot topics among developers these days, Since its release in 2007 to till now has been improved simultaneously. Basically, Dart is an open-source programming language that is used for different platforms like developing mobile applications, web, server, desktop, and also for Internet of things(IoT) and it is also declared “Standard ” by Ecma.
It was an introduction that everyone knows but the point of discussion is why and how dart is better (if it is) in different fields if we compare to different languages like java, javaScript, swift.
I am saying this because there are different aspects of Dart which either correlate or totally differ from other languages used for mobile application development.
Dart is an object-oriented language and gives a feel like c and if you are familiar with c or java you will be productive and proficient in the dart. However, when the dart is used in a web application it is transpiled (TRANSlate comPILER) in javascript.
The Dart installation comes with a VM as well to run the .dart files from a command-line interface. The Dart files used in Flutter apps are compiled and packaged into a binary file (.apk or .ipa) and uploaded to app stores.
Some Frequently asked questions are addressed by dart.dev itself you can visit to.
If you are trying to identify the language you use is different, better, equal, or a little less in different aspects then you need to make comparisons with others so we will see some small points and decide where Dart lies on ???
So for that, we will take a glance at the languages which are used widely for backend and frontend(not all some of them like javaScript). As you know that when react-native was introduced by Facebook the demand for javaScript went all-time high and swift has also its separate user base.
dart:core for core functionality; it is imported in all dart files.
dart:async for asynchronous programming.
dart:math for mathematical functions and constants.
dart:convert for converting between different data representations, like JSON to UTF-8.
