Use your JavaScript skills to Learn Dart

The Dart team has re-launched their Synonym app, which maps commons idioms, patterns, and practices of JavaScript and jQuery to the equivalent Dart code. Bonus, there are now also C# snippets!


This app was originally developed at a Google hackathon, as the original author wanted to map his knowledge of JavaScript to Dart. The Synonym app is now updated to M1 language changes and has C# code snippets.

Thanks to community members John Evans, Matthew Butler, and Bernhard Pichler for their help in updating Synonym. We are always looking for contributions, the source code is open source.
