A new version of Dart 3.4 has been released.

Wasm has received several updates, with over 50% of code completion analyzer bugs resolved, several issues in the dart:js_interop library fixed, and much more.

But the most significant news is the demonstration of macros in action, particularly serialization.

Casual Games Toolkit has made casual games a significant part of the Flutter ecosystem. Including that running multiple platforms with Flutter costs minimal effort, it looks promising for small projects.

In version 0.3.0, the two_dimensional_scrollables package has been enhanced with a new widget called TreeView, which allows for the display of a tree structure, such as a folder with files.

It is encouraging to see the Flutter team continue to develop bidirectional scrolling. We will keep an eye on this moving forward.

I love animations very much, but sometimes making them look "beautiful" requires a significant amount of time.

That's why I want to share a set of packages that can speed up this process:

👉🏻 animations - pre-built animations from Flutter team

👉🏻 animate_to - moves a widget from point A to point B using Overlay

👉🏻 animate_do - a collection of various ready-made animation wrappers for widgets

👉🏻 flutter_animate - similar to animate_do, but with its own features (animation synchronization with scrolling, use of shaders, etc.)

👉🏻 auto_animated - enables animating the appearance of widgets in lists

👉🏻 smooth_page_indicator - cool variations of PageView indicator animations

👉🏻 funvas - animations directly on Canvas based on mathematical functions with a cool demo

👉🏻 flutter_shaders - a utility package that simplifies working with shaders

Share packages and/or techniques that you think might also be useful in the comments 🫡
