Dart JS Stub repo

[MicroTransactionsMatterToo]

Hey, I've noticed that it's possible to generate JS stubs for Dart, and was wondering if there was a repo like DefinitelyTyped [https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped] for Dart stubs. If not, would it be alright to make one. I feel that having JS stubs might encourage more developers over if they can use their normal JS libs from inside Dart easily

Many Thanks,

Not a terrible idea, though I think mostly we've relied on individual pub packages.

Do you mean a repository that would have lots of common JS stubs? That is an interesting idea.

Yeah. I’ve just talked it over in Slack, and it looks like it should be doable for HTML included JS. Apparently the require in ES6 is not very clearly defined yet, so they aren’t sure how to compile it to JS

I’m going to be using individual Pub packages, but they’ll all be named like this : ${js_lib}_stub

Many Thanks,

I think publishing more Dart stubs for JS libraries is a good idea.

Perhaps use 

${js_lib}_js

or 

${Js_lib}_facade

so it is clear from the library name that the library contains js facades.

I was just thinking about this yesterday too - great idea.

Also i think these 2 repos below have a relationship to this discussion:

https://github.com/yjbanov/butterfly

https://github.com/Workiva/over_react

Both allow you to reuse a GUI architectural pattern.
