Dart¶

Dart is the language runtime and package ecosystem behind Flutter apps and shared packages.

Upstream references¶

• Effective Dart

What upstream owns¶

• Dart language behavior
• package layout and analyzer behavior
• style, usage, and API design guidance

What VCQA owns¶

• Dart SDK constraints and analyzer gates by package.
• generated/localized code exception boundaries.
• shared model compatibility across app packages.

Detection signals¶

• pubspec.yaml
• analysis_options.yaml
• Dart source under lib/, test/, or integration_test/
• flutter test, dart test, or dart analyze in scripts or CI

Composed standards¶

• Flutter Firebase App

Combination-born guidelines¶

• Dart SDK constraints must match the Flutter channel and CI runtime.
• Shared packages must not silently drift from app/admin consumers.
• Generated Dart files need a clear policy for analyzer/lint exceptions.
