Writing a Package Manager
Agreed. Version resolution is the interesting problem.
Most package managers use a SAT solver to resolve dependencies. The Dart team has a detailed write up on their SAT-based approach which is worth a read [1]. For contrast, Russ Cox presents an algorithm that doesn't use a SAT solver (intended for Go) [2].

Private pub.dev - is it possible?
Official documentation.

Self hosting package repository
As I understand Custom package repositories it's possible to host one's own package repository. The Repository Specification is public, but dart.dev only references cloud based paid services like Cloudsmith and OnePub.

I am building a pub server. When does the client send the name and version of the package and how can I access it?
As u/Which-Adeptness6908 already pointed out, the repository specification is small, and that's all you need to implement a server: https://github.com/dart-lang/pub/blob/master/doc/repository-spec-v2.md
- So you want to write a package manager

A bit sad, they don't publish the list of regexes, etc.
--------------
I added a similar thing to the package manager for Dart / Flutter, because we saw users accidentally publishing secrets. That code is public, it relies on regexes and entropy estimation:

Another choice of Flutter Version Manager: fvm in shell
Heres are some issues I've faced when trying with the dart-version cli: - The installation - dart pub global activate needs to have flutter/dart global installed already. - Global activated fvm cli got invalid after flutter upgrade, see issue - The cli does not work with customized fork of flutter. - You should run fvm flutter , not flutter , this changes CI/CD workflow

Dart on CLI: Foundations
This will add the args dependency in your pubspec file. We used the Darts package manager pub to add this dependency.

Using different flutter versions per-project
For macOS and Linux, I recommend the shell version fvm: https://github.com/fvm-sh/fvm.

Another choice of Flutter Version Manager: fvm in shell
I'm a frontend developer and recently have some work to do with Flutter, need to switch Flutter version in different projects. For Nodejs we have nvm to manage and switch node version. I've tried the dart-version fvm, but it does not work similar to nvm. So I released a shell-version fvm. Anyone who needs to work with multi flutter version and run into problems with dart-version fvm can have try with this.
