Hi all, I am kinda new to web-dev. More used to Java and C# than anything. I was wondering if there was a way to have my dart web app run in a non-dart supported browser by automatically translating it to JS? If so what's the best way to do this?

Currently there are only non-dart browsers ;-)
Dartium is for development only (not for production use).

Dart support for Chrome is work in progress though.

Currently you run `pub build` in your application package and it generates JavaScript that runs in the last two versions of the evergreen browsers.

I see, I take it I include the generated JS script instead of my dart one then? Thanks.

Exactly. There is a dart2dart available that produces Dart deployables but that is experimental and as far as I know will be in experimental state until the first browser supports Dart natively (probably Chrome ;-) )

I see, Thanks. Hopefuly Dart will be supported by many mainstream browsers in the future to simplify all this :)
