I really liked the direct comparisons in this article between the original javascript and the dart code. It makes me want to learn more about dart and about how I can use it in my personal (or work) projects.

It's doubtful that JavaScript will be widely replaced as the language of the web. I can see a day where most web developers don't write JavaScript anymore and languages that compile to JavaScript (like dart) will be widely adopted.

It's almost like the evolution of programming languages. If you take, for example, the C programming language, people could write a lot of modern applications using it but C++ and .NET has made things easier and more maintainable. I think a similar thing could be said in the future about dart (representing C++ or .NET) and JavaScript (representing C).
