Give Dart a good look. Don't expect it to work well with IE < 9, or other 
really old browsers. It has essentially the same quick development 
turnaround as pyjs with the native client. Aside from the semicolons and 
curly braces, it feels a lot more like python than javascript. The recent 
release of Angular.dart makes it really worth investigating.
