Intro (Flutter & Dart)

Dart is an open-source programming language originally developed by Google for building user interfaces for web and mobile apps. Dart forms the foundation of the Flutter framework and supports tasks like formatting, analyzing, and testing code for Flutter apps. Similarly to JavaScript, Dart can be used for both mobile and web development but is more commonly used with Flutter for cross-platform mobile apps. The main() function is the entry point for Dart programs and is responsible for program execution and declaring variables and functions. Flutter is an open-source UI toolkit that allows building cross-platform apps for Android and iOS using a single codebase.

DART AND FLUTTER

WHAT IS DART..??

Dart is an open-source and object-oriented


programming language. It is originally
developed by Google and later approved as a
standard by ECMA (European Computer
Manufacturers Association).

The purpose of Dart programming is to create


a frontend user interfaces for the web and
mobile apps.
DART AS FOUNDATION OF FLUTTER
Dart also forms the foundation of Flutter. Dart
provides the language and runtimes that
power Flutter apps, but Dart also supports
many core developer tasks like formatting,
analyzing, and testing code.
DART VS JAVASCRIPT
Similarly to JavaScript, Dart can be used for
both mobile and web
development. Dart became popular along
with the Flutter framework
for developing cross-platform mobile
apps. Dart can be also used for developing
web apps, but is actually used for this
purpose very rarely.
EDITORS
On November 18, 2011, Google released Dart
Editor, an open-source program
for macOS, Windows, and Linux. The editor
supports syntax highlighting, JavaScript
compiling, running web, server Dart
applications, and debugging.
DARTPAD
The Dart team created DartPad at the start of
2015, to provide an easier way to start using
Dart. It is a fully online editor from which users
can experiment with Dart application
programming interfaces (APIs), and run Dart
code.
The main() function:

The main() function is the top-level function of the Dart. It is the most
important and vital function of the Dart programming language. The
execution of the programming starts with the main() function.
The main() function can be used only once in a program.

It is responsible for all types of execution such as user-defined statements,


functions, and libraries function. The program begins with main() function
and we declares variable, and user defined executable statements inside
it. The main function returns void
SYNTAX:
void main() {
// main function body
}

Example:
void main()
{
print(“Hello World");
}

Output:

Hello World
WHERE CAN I USED DART..??
Dart is a general-purpose language, and you can
use it for almost anything:

.) In mobile applications thanks to Flutter.


.) In console applications.
.) In web applications
WHAT IS FLUTTER..??

Flutter is an open-source
UI Software Development Kit
created by google,
which allows you to make
cross platform applications
(Android and iOS).
WHY FLUTTER..??
Following are some benefits of flutter:

.) FLUTTER IS CROSS-PLATFORM
Flutter is a cross-platform development tool.
That means software developers can use the
same code base for building an iOS and
Android app. Cross-platform development is
the best method for saving time and resources
throughout the development process.
.) SIMPLE TO LEARN AND USE

Flutter is a modern framework, and you


can feel it! It’s way simpler to create
mobile applications with it. If you have
used Java, Swift, or React Native, you'll
notice how Flutter is different.
.) QUICK COMPILATION (HOT RELOAD)

You can change your code and see the results


in real-time. It’s called Hot-Reload. It only
takes a short amount of time after you save to
update the application itself.
Significant modifications force you to reload
the app. But if you do work like design, for
example, and change the size of an element,
it’s in real-time!
.) Good documentation.

It’s important for new technology to have good


documentation. But it’s not always the case
that it has it!
You can learn a lot from Flutter's
documentation, and everything is very detailed
with easy examples for basic use cases.
.) OPEN SOURCE

Flutter is an open-source technology


surrounded by an active community of
developers who provide support, contribute to
the tool’s extensive documentation, and
develop helpful resources. Both Dart and
Flutter are free to use.
