Try out hot reload on the web with the latest Flutter beta

Using Flutter on the web? Wish you had hot reload? You can try it out (in beta) today! Details here: www.reddit.com/r/FlutterDev...

There isn't really anything flutter specific about it. There is some support in the flutter tool itself, but that should be replicable.

An update on Dart macros & data serialization We have invested significant time and resources to prototype macros over the past couple years. Unfortunately, each time we solved a major…

We have unfortunately decided to stop working on macros.

You can read the statement here: medium.com/dartlang/an-...

Feel free to ask me any follow up questions.

Here: github.com/vsmenon/todo...

That's the version with client only rendering though. Need to push the version with prerendering.

Spent some recent downtime hacking. A TodoMVC with Web Asssembly & server-side rendering using the impressive Jaspr framework:

vsm-todomvc-wasm.web.app

Very cool to see this working on Chrome, Safari, and Firefox - Wasm has come a long way!

What's the official midwest definition of "salad" vs "casserole"? :-)

Ouch. Do you know if there is a bug filed for that?

Testing out this new hashtag feature ... from a #flutter and #dart app (deck.blue)!

Curious: have you looked at using the canvaskit renderer? Our general experience is that it's more performant.

It's a beautiful app!

A great talk on Android on RISC-V work, along with an update of Dart progress running on this stack: https://youtu.be/xLwdUn3DQp8?t=769

Regarding Dart, the https://dart.dev/guides/language/numbers link is correct. `int` is effectively platform dependent, and on the web, we need to rely on JS semantics. (This is one of the reasons we're exploring Wasm.)

If you're interested in Dart or Flutter, you should follow my colleagues who just joined: @munificent.bsky.social and @kevmoo.bsky.social !

@kevmoo.bsky.social - you should be using skyfeed.app :-)

Very cool! Trying out skyfeed now with this reply. :-)

Really exciting about this work! The Dart code is now compiling to Wasm (with GC extensions).

Can try a sample here: https://flutterweb-wasm.web.app/#/

It runs on Chrome Stable and Firefox Nightly - the latter with experimental flags flipped.

We released Dart 3.0 last week! Full null safety, patterns, records, class modifiers. This is our biggest release in years.
