Dart SDK

Welcome to the Dart API reference documentation, covering the Dart core libraries. These include:

• dart:core: Core functionality such as strings, numbers, collections, errors, dates, and URIs.
• dart:html: DOM manipulation for web apps (available only to web apps).
• dart:io: I/O for non-web apps.

Except for dart:core, you must import a library before you can use it. Here's an example of importing dart:async and dart:math:

import 'dart:async';
import 'dart:math';

You can find more libraries using the pub.dev site.

The main site for learning and using Dart is dart.dev. Check out these pages:
