I'd like to start experimenting with Angular 2 and Dart, but I am not having much luck finding relevant documentation (the quick start guide doesn't get you very far). 

For example - just simple things, like how to declare properties (do we still use annotations on getters, or do you need to use the Typescript style of declaring properties on the @Component?). 

The angular dart newsgroup is not getting a lot of action. 

To be blunt: Should I forget this for now until Angular 2 is further along?  


PS: What would *really* help is an example that shows off all of the framework.

Thanks Georgiois - that's a great resource. 


There are some good JS examples there - so it definitely helps. I'd really like some more Dart examples.

Out of curiosity - what's your reason for going for Dart? 
It seems to be like such an unnatural choice given TypeScript is close to ES* standards...

Regardless, I imagine it'd be easy to translate the TS examples to Dart?

Mostly because I find  Dart to be a much nicer language than JS. 


There appear to be enough differences in TS and Dart that the examples do not port across (or at least I can't figure out how they port).

But, yes - I am coming to the conclusion that using Dart and Angular2 together is going to be an uphill battle.
