I wish Dart was more popular as a JS alternative. I've been using it recently it's really surprisingly productive and fun.

Most of what Dart offers was addressed in ES2017 and beyond. I think it was released a little too late in my opinion.

Does Dart still allow you to compile to JS or was that feature dropped?

It must; the SASS reference implementation is written in Dart and the npm package is transpired from that.
