I don't really like Dart, but I put up with it in order to use Flutter, which is awesome.
Dart is basically ES6&(TypeScript|Flow), but randomly slightly different, and usually in a way that makes it slightly weaker or more Java-eque, neither of which I prefer.
Basically it's not different enough from ES6 (plus a typing system) to be useful, just different enough to be annoying.
To be fair they're not always that easily accessible on React Native either. A lot of the times they seem to break stuff in weird ways, if they work at all.

Also different enough to make none of the libraries in the huge js ecosystem readily accessible.
