Getting Started

If you don’t have the Dart SDK and IntelliJ IDE, please get it using the links below.

Downloading Intellij IDE

Download, using this link jetbrains.com/idea/download
Note: Download the IDE, best fit for your operating system (either Windows, Linux & MacOS), I recommend downloading the community version.

Downloading Dart SDk

Download using this link image.png https://dart.dev/get-dart

If you don’t already have the Dart SDK, install it. You can either, build the SDK from source, grab a Dart Docker image, or install from any release channel by downloading the SDK as a zip file. I recommend downloading the SDK as a Zip file and choosing a stable channel.

Note: Check the system requirement, Operating system and release channel and version fit, to know the best fit for you.

Configuring the Dart

  1. Start the IDE and install Dart plugin. image.png
