Dart?

Hey Folks,

I see some people convert their games to HTML5 after PyWeek. Has anyone tried Dart for doing this?

Thanks
Davy

It looks more a port to a different language than an actual conversion to HTML5.

In my case my game relies heavily on Cocos2d, so I guess I could use Javascript and http://cocos2d-javascript.org/. In the same way games using PyGame could be ported to http://gamejs.org/.

But to be honest, part of the fun for me is using Python. I don't like that much using Javascript, and Dart looks a little bit "too different" to me.

Thanks reidrac - those are great links to look at.

Yes Dart seems like a 'better' Javascript - wish it was a little more pythonic. Trying out something now in Dart and I'm slightly irritated by the semi-colons! :)
