Package Overview

Package selection guidance compiled from public package information, community data, and project usage.

The analyzer package offers a powerful library for performing static analysis on Dart code, enabling developers to detect potential issues, enforce coding standards, and improve code quality before runtime. It supports parsing, type checking, and linting, making it essential for tools like IDEs, linters, and code formatters. Built by the Dart team, it integrates seamlessly into development workflows across all major platforms.

Use cases

  • Code linting
  • Static error detection
  • IDE integration
  • Refactoring support
  • Code quality enforcement

Key features

  • Syntax and semantic analysis
  • Type inference validation
  • Custom rule creation
  • Cross-platform compatibility
  • Integration with build systems

Suitable for

  • Dart tool developers
  • IDE plugin creators
  • Code quality teams
  • Static analysis tooling
  • Lint rule authors

Considerations

  • Requires understanding of Dart language semantics
  • May need configuration for custom rules
  • Performance impact in large codebases
  • Limited runtime debugging capabilities
  • Dependent on SDK version compatibility

Dart

An approachable, portable, and productive language for high-quality apps on any platform

Dart is:

  • Approachable: Develop with a strongly typed programming language that is consistent, concise, and offers modern language features like null safety and patterns.

  • Portable: Compile to ARM, x64, or RISC-V machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Compile to JavaScript or WebAssembly for the web.

  • Productive: Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app. Diagnose app issues using DevTools.

Dart's flexible compiler technology lets you run Dart code in different ways, depending on your target platform and goals:

  • Dart Native: For programs targeting devices (mobile, desktop, server, and more), Dart Native includes both a Dart VM with JIT (just-in-time) compilation and an AOT (ahead-of-time) compiler for producing machine code.

  • Dart Web: For programs targeting the web, Dart Web includes both a development time compiler (dartdevc) and a production time compiler (dart2js).
