Using JS interop, you can call Javascript from Dart, and Dart from Javascript.

To call Dart from Javascript, you first need to register the functions that you want Javascript to have access to. It's also possible to pass primitives between JS and Dart and vice-versa.

import 'dart:html';
import 'dart:js' as js;

void main() {
  js.context["myFunc"] = () {
    print("called from javascript");
  };

  js.context["sayGreeting"] = (message) {
    print("greeting: $message");
  };
}

Then from Javascript, you can call the functions that you registered:

myFunc(); // prints 'called from javascript'
sayGreeting("Hello"); // prints 'greeting: Hello'

Exporting dart function in Javascript worked, but the exposed function might conflict with a function from other library (have same name). It is possible to warp those exported functions into a Javascript object? So in Javascript I can call myClass.myFunc(). –  kzhdev Mar 28 at 21:02
