Is Dart considered to be a compiled or an interpreted language? The same question holds for JavaScript.
The reason for the question:
I've been watching an interview with the founders of dart, and in 7:10 Lars Bak said that:
"When you [...] in a JavaScript program, you actually execute JavaScript before you start running the real program. In Dart, you don't execute anything before the first instruction in main is being executed".
It sounded to me that he's saying that JavaScript is a compiled language while Dart is an interpreted language. Is it true?
Isn't the Dart VM a compiler?
