Dart 3 will be on pair with Kotlin and other top languages (you can see more features in the proposal)
As for the strange infix syntax, you're correct - it's not important (for Dart anyway). Kotlin supports writing code that have DSL like syntax making things like typesafe HTML or Jetpack Compose possible.
- I taught the chat bot an alternative syntax for HTML, called HBML, basically just braces instead of tags... we are so screwed

Create any kind of app with Kotlin
Html DSL in Kotlin. See it on Github.
- Is there an equivalent for Compose Web for server side Kotlin apps?

Show HN: Imba – I have spent 7 years creating a programming language for the web
Thanks for sharing, I really like projects like this. And the website is really informative.
I find it less of a new language and more of a JS preprocessor, removing lots of the cruft and integrating XML-tags and CSS in a very neat way.
What I miss:
1) I feel the web is shifting to more type checking. TS, Elm, Kotlin.js... I personally also prefer more typesafety, especially if the project grows in LOC/team size.
2) Compared to JSX, Imba does a much better job in integrating adjacent technologies. Though I much prefer these to be integrated in an eDSL fashion. For example how Elm does HTML templating (in Elm) or Kotlinx.html[1].
Just taste i guess. Good luck with yr project!

Kotlin Team AMA #3: Ask Us Anything
I do use kotlinx.html and while there is a lack of the documentation about the tags, most of them are already implemented (as far as I know they are automatically generated) and the ones that aren't automatically generated can be implemented manually in your own project.
Recently I wanted to try doing Kotlin Fullstack with https://htmx.org/ , I looked at several HTML Template Engines and came across kotlinx.html. I really wanted to use it to make my whole stack type safe, but the few wiki pages that you call "documentation" really had me struggling to use it. https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.html/wiki Like I didn't even find a whole list of all tags you have. I really expected different from a offical Jetbrains Kotlin library, not to mention there is a complete lack of tutorials for this library, I switched to mustache because they have way better documentation.
