To date, Flutter has been able to gain all the attention of the developers’ community and you must have seen the framework popping at almost everywhere and felt like exploring more about it because you are a developer and that is what developers do, try out new stuff right?!

Well, the joy of building amazing User Interfaces for mobile apps is quite evident by the report which details that the fastest-growing open-source projects on GitHub are built on Flutter and Dart. With Flutter on-trend, it is not surprising for Dart to dominate in the world of programming languages too. And, we’re certainly here for that!

But what’s so cool about Dart?

Ease of Learning

The reality is, you just don’t realize it but you know dart already. Bet? Thanks to its unsurprising object orientation and syntax that if you have any experience working with object-oriented languages like C++, C#, or Java, you can be productive with Dart in just a few days or immediately.

PS: If you find it hard, please don’t kill me and maybe start with the core concepts and terminologies used in programming.

Compilation and Execution

Dart is phenomenally flexible when it comes to compilation and execution, with Ahead of Time compiler, which allows almost all of Flutter to be written in Dart. On the other hand, when it comes to Just In Time compiler, Dart is the answer again.

Optimized for User Interface

If great support for capturing user interface code using Dart, without needing a markup language isn’t the coolest thing ever, then I don’t know what is. Period.

And turns out, Dart is a big reason why developers love Flutter.

Exploring Dart: Respect the Holy “Hello World” Program

Same as most of the other languages, Dart also runs the main() program first. The compiler looks for the main() function and executes the code written in that function. If the main() is not found, you will get an error and your application won’t run.
