Overview

Dart is an open-source, object-oriented, class-based programming language developed by Google. Designed for building web, mobile, server, and desktop applications, Dart emphasizes productivity, flexibility, and performance. It supports ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation to native machine code for fast startup and predictable performance, and just-in-time (JIT) compilation for rapid development cycles with hot reload. Dart's syntax is C-style and familiar to many developers, while its features include strong typing, sound null safety, asynchronous programming, and powerful meta-programming capabilities. Its primary use case is powering the [[flutter-framework|Flutter]] UI toolkit, enabling cross-platform app development from a single codebase, but it also finds application in server-side development with frameworks like [[dart-frog|Dart Frog]] and web development via compilation to JavaScript.
