wxDart 0.9.2 released
Posted on
Version 0.9.2 of wxDart has been released.
Dart is a programming language developed by Google. It uses static typing and can be compiled to an executable binary or to JavaScript or WebAssembly to run in a web browser.
wxDart consists of two separate libraries which offer the same API and can be used independently.
- wxDart Flutter uses the Flutter library as its backend and is written in pure Dart.
- wxDart Native provides Dart bindings to the wxWidgets C++ GUI library.
wxDart Flutter has been written from the ground up and does not depend on any C++ or C code. It uses the wxWidgets API, adding many desktop features to Flutter. Apps compiled with wxDart Flutter run almost anywhere (including Android and iOS), but it mainly targets the web.
Like wxWidgets itself, wxDart Native mainly targets the classical desktop environments and offers native look and feel.
Check out the Fireworks demo written with wxDart Flutter, compiled to WebAssembly, and see how it uses wxWidgets API in its source code.
wxDart and its documentation are hosted on pub.dev here.
