Conversion to Dart #7

Open doobilydo opened 10 years ago

doobilydo commented 10 years ago

I have a strong desire to write all the JavaScript in Dart. The problem comes into play with jQuery. I need to find drag-and-highlight functionality for Dart. "Injecting" jQuery into Dart only seems to be troubling, inefficient, and asking for bugs.

That's the only, major feature utilizing jQuery. Because of that, I'll keep writing in JavaScript.

I've decided that the drag-and-highlight is focused on mouse-interface style. If this is to be used on a mobile device, dragging and selecting will not come into play (most likely).

Going to design the port over to Dart.

This is no longer a priority. As much as I'd like to do it, I don't have the time to port everything to Dart, maintain a development environment, keep up on updates, etc. With the small amount of time put into this project, developing in Dart would take away from productivity, creativity, and actual progress on the application.

The latest working version has been pushed to gh-pages. I'm working on making everything objected oriented and prototypal, since the lack of those attributes is causing problems.
