Dart-Code VS Flutter

If it is related to the Dart/Flutter plugin, you should file a bug for that project and not for Dart or Flutter.

You say that only thing I did was open an issue and take the credit. I take that feedback constructively, but one tiny contribution I did though is make the Dart extension use the new API.

I can't help with the first few, but if you're seeing slow performance writing Dart/Flutter, please file an issue at https://github.com/Dart-Code/Dart-Code/issues.

It would probably be better if you file an issue here: https://github.com/Dart-Code/Dart-Code/issues

You might want to look into Dart-Code how these closing labels are generated and then create another VSCode plugin to create your kind of code decoration. I had a 1min glance at the plugin source code and I think, this API is responsible to creating such decorations.

The DevTools are a stand alone web application that are integrated into VSC using a VSC-specific webview component. This integration is written in TypeScript. See here.

I'm not aware of any other formatters for Dart. There's an open issue about more flexible formatting at https://github.com/Dart-Code/Dart-Code/issues/914 but it's not something being actively worked on. If someone was to create their own formatter I've offered in that thread to provide some pointers for wrapping it up into a VS Code extension (the Dart extension already supports disabling its own formatter, although VS Code now allows you to more easily select a different formatter).

Also, there's already an official extension for Dart which is open source, have you thought about contributing this feature to that extension?

Thanks - that link does not appear to be open access, anyways I don't think I've seen it. I'm familiar with Flutter at a high-level (Kevin Moore gave a great talk on it at Wasm I/O), and I think other than requiring users to work in Dart, it is probably one of the most powerful ways to do cross-platform UI today.

Worth noting that their original GPU backend was Skia, and now they are retooling around Flutter GPU (Impeller)[0], which is kind of designed similarly as an abstract rendering interface over platform-specific GPU APIs.

If you are considering Electron/React then I would suggest adding Flutter to your list of technologies to consider. It uses Dart (a language similar to C#) and has a lot going for it… relatively quick to get up to speed with, fantastic developer experience (e.g., hot reload, great IDE support, good development tools) and very strong cross-platform support: it generates native iOS, Android, MacOS, Windows and Linux executables. Check it out: https://flutter.dev/

You can find the React Native documentation here and Flutter Documentation here.

> There is actually a great issue thread on the Flutter GitHub that explains exactly why other solutions do not work correctly when compared to hooks [0]

Interesting. I assume you are referring to this comment in particular -> https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/51752#issuecomment... ?
