This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/programming

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Flutter

    Flutter makes it easy and fast to build beautiful apps for mobile and beyond

  • For reference, a year ago there was an issue complaining about flutter apps taking 40mb vs 20mb of a native one: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/48391

  • hydro-sdk

    Author Flutter experiences in Typescript. No native bridge, no V8. Just Dart. From runtime to virtual machine.

  • I'm (slowly) trying to change that https://github.com/hydro-sdk/hydro-sdk

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • freezed

    Code generation for immutable classes that has a simple syntax/API without compromising on the features.

  • People like to claim Dart is not on the same level as Kotlin. I disagree. I use Kotlin professionally but I like Dart and think it is almost the same, Kotlin has only very minor advantages, like sealed classes - which Dart can emulate with codegen libs like https://pub.dev/packages/freezed, while Dart has some things it does better too: compiles to native or runs interpreted/JIT (kotlin native is alpha quality currently, Dart Native has been mature for a few years), build tool is integrated with it much more nicely than Kotlin/Gradle, testing framework is native to the language and more non-sense than KotlinTest bullshit, and the huge advantage of course is Flutter 2, making the same Dart codebase run on Windows/Mac/Linux/iOS/Android which is huge.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
