Dart has treeshaking at the moment

02/14/2017, 10:03 AMYes, I have been using Dart for 18+ months, patiently waiting for KotlinJS to get TreeShaking and some other niceties before I jump ship to KotlinJS.
Wrote an article about Dart + Angular some time ago:

02/14/2017, 11:22 AMYes, I've used Polymer before, Polymer Dart is just a wrapper for Polymer JS and often lagging far behind the official Polymer version.
Google's attention with regards to Dart is on the Angular side, Polymer doesn't get that much attention.

03/12/2017, 3:34 PMGoogle is using Angular Dart internally, they're not using Polymer for anything as far as I'm aware hence the reason Angular is getting a lot more resources.
