Google plan to kill Javascript with Dart

Google plan to announce their web programming language, Dart, next month. The language, formerly called Dash, is reportedly developed as a replacement for Javascript.

"The goal of the Dash effort is ultimately to replace JavaScript as the lingua franca of Web development on the open Web platform," said Mark S. Miller, a Google engineer, in a blog post.

The first Web application written using Dart that we're likely to see from Google is a cloud IDE known by the codename "Brightly," according to Miller's summary. Presumably, Brightly is based on the code for Writely, the online document creation app that Google acquired in 2006 and later turned into Google Docs.
