I am running the latest Chromium build, with the Dart VM. I would like to start playing with Dart's HTML library by messing around with websites, using the Console to enter Dart commands. Obviously, this is easy with Javascript, but I can't work out how to tell the console that I am entering Dart, not JS.

Is this possible?

    Apparently, you can now (at least it works for me :) ): http://stackoverflow.com/a/21587130/328184 – jriggins Feb 05 '14 at 19:57

It is not. I actually requested this feature on the bug tracker a while back but I can't seem to find it. IIRC, it has to do with the fact that you'd have to be running the code within a particular isolate, which at the moment is not possible. In javascript, everything is global so there is a fundamental difference.

  • OK, that makes sense. And, also stimulates a whole collection of new questions. However, I will ask them separately. Thanks very much. – Andy Burnett Feb 10 '13 at 18:52

It is possible if it has the Dart VM... I run Dartium but I guess that it can be similar!

You have to change in the context menu. If this answer doesn't work for you I'm sorry...
