Introducing Dart 3 alpha
Michael Thomsen announced that Dart 3, the next major release of the programming language, is now available in an alpha preview build. The goal of the language is to enable developers to quickly create high-quality apps across any platform.

With Dart 3, the team intends to make another big step forward in refining these qualities.
