dart_style VS sdk

> Oh I'm curious why you're rewriting it?

The primary driver is that we're moving to a fairly different formatting style: https://github.com/dart-lang/dart_style/issues/1253

The formatter works sort of like a compiler in that it parses the code, translates it to an internal representation, does optimization on that IR, and then outputs final code. The main difference is that the "final code" is also source code, and the "optimization" is line splitting.

The old IR grew organically over time and got increasingly difficult to work with. It baked certain formatting choices directly into the IR (mainly indentation) which line splitting then had no control over. For example, given a function call like:

    someLongFunctionName(some + long + argument + expression, [firstElement, anotherElement, aThirdElement]);

in your analysis_options.yaml. The formatter doesn't understand the new syntax yet, though.

Sorry, perhaps im not quite familiar with the GitHub issues you’re chatting about, but a quick search shows the Dart team actually made a very similar argument about laptops and diffs as the first reply in a thread about the 80 character max: https://github.com/dart-lang/dart_style/issues/833

Nope, but there is a proposal to set line length in pubspec.yaml: https://github.com/dart-lang/dart_style/issues/918

The standard Dart extension only supports formatting using the SDK-supplied formatter (dart_style) which (by design) is not configurable (although it can be turned on/off with the dart.enableSdkFormatter setting).

Flutter itself provides formatting choices, however, it only formats Dart files and it doesn’t re-order the code. Flutter formats the code based on these formatting rules.

There are some other possibilities - such as complex code being slow to format (for example I hit https://github.com/dart-lang/dart_style/issues/1022 and originally thought it was a repro for this issue), or that the server is busy doing its initial synchronous scan of the workspace, though those should be temporary and the format should eventually complete so it's probably not what most people are reporting here.

Deploying Dart functions to AWS Lambda enables you to utilize them not only within AWS Lambda but also integrate them with services like Amazon API Gateway, allowing you to leverage them in Flutter applications as well. This unified codebase in Dart offers great convenience.

Gerrit is optimized for in-house work lead by engineers who would rather be using Subversion. ("Subversion merge isn't worth using so I don't see why we need it.") It tends to be hostile to community contribution: outsiders get a second-class experience, so if community participation is your goal it's a bad choice.

First off, Flutter uses Dart for its codebase. This means that the Dart programming language is used to develop the UIs, logic, and functionalities of applications and software built with Flutter.

The methods and other important information are documented in detail here. I have been exploring it and received some advice from Norbert 🙌.
