"the executables created with dart2native are self-contained, they can run on machines that don’t have the Dart SDK installed. And because they’re compiled with Dart’s AOT compiler, the executables start running in just a few milliseconds."
and some fun stuff:
"Using Dart core libraries, dart:ffi, and the dart_console library, we can create pretty interesting console apps. The dart_console package includes a full demo of kilo, a console text editor written in just ~500 lines of Dart code. The name kilo comes from its origin, kilo.c, which was a C implementation in roughly 1000 lines of code."
This sounds like an absolutely magnificent milestone for Dart and a direct hit on developers who use SwiftUI or Electron.
Finally, a mature cross-platform desktop application framework with a DSL-like style for creating efficient, self-contained apps that work on Windows, Mac and Linux with the bonus of it working on iOS and Android. This truly changes everything in the desktop app development space.
