Dart support about extism

I'm afraid not. But there is significant interest in wasm in that world. Maybe ask on r/dartlang.

Also, in case you're not aware, the next release of Ruby will have wasm compilation.

And Dart is also getting wasm support.

WASM is going to take over the world. This project is super interesting.

This might help: https://crates.io/crates/flutter_rust_bridge

I'm going to take a look at all of the above - I think it would be great to get this supported. Thanks for sharing the information 👍

I was doing a bit of dart dev a while ago & built this https://github.com/brad-jones/dexecve

also https://github.com/brad-jones/dart-go

I presume dart has probably changed a bit since then. Or at least I hope it has.
I seem to remember the FFI was super basic & I ended up passing JSON between dart & go.

At least with the flutter_rust_bridge project, it's possible to pass a lot of data types across the bridge. One issue though is that nested structures need to use Box or Vec for some reason (so it's a pointer and not inlined in memory), but that might be caused by that crate itself.

Concerning the changes, I think the biggest one is null safety.
