# Dart
|
|
|
|
## A client-optimized language for fast apps on any platform
|
|
|
|
Dart is:
|
|
|
|
* **Optimized for UI**:
|
|
Develop with a programming language specialized around the needs of user interface creation.
|
|
|
|
* **Productive**:
|
|
Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app.
|
|
|
|
* **Fast on all platforms**:
|
|
Compile to ARM & x64 machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Or compile to JavaScript for the web.
|
|
|
|
Dart's flexible compiler technology lets you run Dart code in different ways,
|
|
depending on your target platform and goals:
|
|
|
|
* **Dart Native**: For programs targeting devices (mobile, desktop, server, and more),
|
|
Dart Native includes both a Dart VM with JIT (just-in-time) compilation and an
|
|
AOT (ahead-of-time) compiler for producing machine code.
|
|
|
|
* **Dart Web**: For programs targeting the web, Dart Web includes both a development time
|
|
compiler (dartdevc) and a production time compiler (dart2js).
