It's been a pleasure to work with the past month. Traditionally I've worked with Cordova/Ionic and I feel far more productive than I have before on mobile. I was skeptical of the Dart language but now I've seen it's similarities with C# and really enjoy it. The whole widget model is pretty nice to work with too.

The experience of going from zero to HelloWorld with VSCode was so smooth. The community has done an excellent job with the VSCode extensions. Things like picking/install/starting an emulator is quick and intuitive as opposed to the work it takes to initially get thing Xamarin installed and running.

Hot reloading works well on a device or emulator and is really quick! There isn't support for remote updating (yet) once you've published to a store though. There is a GitHub issues tracking this.

I'm a fan. I hope the community grows around it.
