Google announces Dart programming language

Google has built a brand-new programming language for ‘structured web programming, one that appears to be suited to browser-based apps. Two of the search giant’s engineers will discuss Dart, Google’s new language, at the Go to international software development conference next month. News of the new language was posted to the Goto website. There aren’t yet any technical details on Dart but the bios of the two Googlers presenting at Goto strongly suggest a bent towards programming for the web and browser

Technical Overview

Dart is a new class-based programming language for creating structured web applications. Developed with the goals of simplicity, efficiency, and scalability, the Dart language combines powerful new language features with familiar language constructs into a clear, readable syntax.

First off: the language comes as a technology preview, it is not yet in Chrome, it comes with syntax familiar to Javascript developers, Erlang-style/Actor-style concurrency. Comes with support to write applications for the iPad.

Update: clarification: the demoed iPad version was Dart code cross compiled to Javascript and executed

Characteristics:
