Or Dart. That is the only way I see Dart getting any real traction on the IT world at large.
But I agree with you given the move to Android Studio, Kotlin would be a possible candidate as well.

Where <lang> is replaced with the language you're curious about. Here's a few: Kotlin 200
Dart 2,836
Erlang 9,087
Groovy 11,515
Go 24,603
Scala 25,846
While we've still got lots of catching up to do, I think Dart is doing pretty well given its youth. (I would include TypeScript in the above but unfortunately the language detection for it is broken so it reports a bunch of Qt C++ projects as TypeScript).I never get this trend to use Github to measure anything.

Big business language: Cobol 50The broke seems to be intermittent only. The Groovy results seem to be permanently broken though - most of its results are multi-language projects where Groovy is used by a single Gradle build script.
