Dart 3

I'm super excited about this release. I've loved pattern matching and tuples for a long long time and I've wanted to bring them to Dart literally since before 1.0.

They should really not publish this on Medium, honestly. Dart/Flutter already have a fairly corporate feel to them, and being on Medium (which, sadly, is very heavyweight and full of self-promotion these days) really makes me feel like this will be a corporate piece, not a technical note.

This is really impressive. I’ve never written Dart but this makes me very interested to give it a trial. A sound type system, pattern matching, nice syntax and seemingly solid tooling — why don’t I hear about this more often?<p>I’ve been working with state charts a lot and being able to target multiple platforms with the same code would make what I’m doing so much more useful. This library seems to support everything I need: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;rows&#x2F;automata">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;rows&#x2F;automata</a><p>Maybe a good side project! Can anyone give reasons why someone should&#x2F;shouldn’t write Dart (besides a smaller ecosystem)?

This is great! Pattern matching (+tuples, records) is going to make conditional rendering, conditional styles and state management even nicer in Flutter. Thank you Dart team.<p>BTW, all the negative comments I see here seem to come from people who haven&#x27;t worked with Dart and Flutter which is a cultish reactive showing of `google meh` `apple cool!` sentiment that permeates HN.<p>If you haven&#x27;t tried Flutter and Dart give it a good try, it is really nice.

Looks like Flutter has been updated as well. I only wish the state management wasn&#x27;t so convoluted in Flutter

I&#x27;m wondering how garbage collection in WebAssembly is coming along?

Functional features slowly trickle in after many years.
