dartvel_flutter

The Flutter half of Dartvel.

DVBox and DVText with fluent styling, the file-based pages router with typed navigation, Riverpod-backed signals (context.signal, reactive models, DV.global), generated forms and model pages, and DV.Platform — the native API surface, bound through dart:ffi and jnigen rather than platform channels.

You usually do not depend on this directly. Applications depend on dartvel_dev.

Native APIs

Six platforms carry real bindings — Linux, web, Windows, Android, iOS and macOS — reaching native through dart:ffi to X11/GTK/GDBus, the Win32 API, the Objective-C runtime and AudioToolbox, dart:js_interop, and jnigen against the Android SDK. No platform channels anywhere.

Where a binding is absent, the reason is recorded rather than left as backlog: biometrics and NFC need an Activity rather than a Context; UIScreen returns a struct through objc_msgSend, where the wrong entry point corrupts the stack; a browser tab has no system tray. Calling an unbound name throws and names it, rather than returning a plausible default.

The name

The framework is Dartvel and the command is dartvel. The pub.dev package is dartvel_dev because dartvel was taken on 2026-08-06 by an unrelated package.
