Google has built a brand-new programming language for "structured web programming", one that appears to be suited to browser-based apps.
Two of the search giant's engineers will discuss Dart, Google's new language, at the Goto international software development conference next month.
News of the new language was posted to the Goto website.
There aren't yet any technical details on Dart but the bios of the two Googlers presenting at Goto strongly suggest a bent towards programming for the web and browser.
That, plus the fact Google has already taken a crack at the server-side with Go. Released in 2009, Go is an attempt to bring more dynamic-style programming properties to C++ for multi-process applications running distributed machines with multi-core CPUs.
Google describes Go as a "fast, statically typed, compiled language that feels like a dynamically typed, interpreted language".
Go is now running in Google's datacentres, while in July Google released a Go runtime for its App Engine, which lets you build and host your apps on Google's servers.
