Overview of this book

Mastering Dart by Projects is a step-by-step guide that aims to give you hands-on knowledge about programming in Dart using an example-based approach.If you want to become a web developer, or perhaps you already are a web developer but you want to add Dart to your tool belt, then this book is for you. This book assumes that you have at least some knowledge of HTML and how web applications work. Some previous programming experience, preferably in a modern language like C#, Java, Python, Ruby, or JavaScript, will also give you a head start. You can also work with Dart on your preferred platform, be it Linux, Mac OS X, or Windows.

Elements are subclasses of Node; they take up a rectangular space on the web page (with a width and height). They have, at most, one parent Element in which they are enclosed and can contain a list of Elements—their children (you can check this with the function hasChildNodes() that returns a bool function). Furthermore, they can receive events. Elements must first be created before they can be added to the list of a parent element. Elements can also be removed from a node.
