Thanks for bringing up Dart (underrated IMHO). The built-in optional typing helps with productivity and readability. There is also a great official style guide which goes over when static/inferred/dynamic typing are preferred: https://dart.dev/guides/language/effective-dart/design#types

Agreed, I really hope Dart gets more adoption now with the help of Flutter. I would especially want it to get some more back end love.
Yes, I'm watching http://aqueduct.io and https://angulardart.dev with interest.

I'm loving Dart + Flutter, and I hope to be able to write backend code in dart as well, because I want to be able to reuse code.

I'd also encourage you to check out https://angel-dart.dev/.
