Would you prefer writing your backend in Dart if it was easy?

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

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

    Serverpod is a next-generation app and web server, explicitly built for the Flutter and Dart ecosystem.

  • I actually have a background in the game industry myself and have written multiplayer servers in Java, although that was a while ago. Obviously, the choice of websockets came down to compatibility (not just the web, but some firewalls block TCP). That being said, it would be easy to add support for TCP. I added an issue here: https://github.com/serverpod/serverpod/issues/93

  • pub-dev

    The pub.dev website

  • I could find Postgres and MySQL drivers on pub.dev. Sqlite is obviously supported.

  • 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.

  • language

    Design of the Dart language

  • Actually u/mraleph and Dart team are working on static metaprogramming to support refletable.dart without code generation

  • reflectable.dart

    Reflectable is a Dart library that allows programmers to eliminate certain usages of dynamic reflection by specialization of reflective code to an equivalent implementation using only static techniques. The use of dynamic reflection is constrained in order to ensure that the specialized code can be generated and will have a reasonable size.

  • openapi-generator

    OpenAPI Generator allows generation of API client libraries (SDK generation), server stubs, documentation and configuration automatically given an OpenAPI Spec (v2, v3)

  • Have you heard of this? https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
