Serverpod 🚀

Serverpod is a next-generation, open-source app server, written in Dart for the Flutter community.

Great news for all Flutter developers who want to do full-stack Dart! 🎯 Serverpod just closed our €2.7M seed round. 🥳 This will allow us to roll out Serverpod Cloud, build a new low-level server foundation for Dart through Relic, and add heaps of new features to our framework.

I migrated my entire app stack for Yawa to 100% Dart! 💙
• Landing page: React ➡️ Jaspr
• Backend: Node.js ➡️ @ServerpodDev
Now it’s one codebase where I can reuse all logic and assets (like my @rive_app animations) effortlessly.
Best part? I saved 99% on hosting costs 🤯

@Ayushshende0 @viktorlidholt I think you’ll want to keep an eye out for our next release. 😉

Dart must easily be the most versatile computer language out there. 🎯

* Runs as a scripting language (like Python)
* Compiles to kernel code (like Java’s bytecode)
* Compiles to native code (like Swift)
* Compiles to JavaScript (like TypeScript)
* Compiles to WASM (unlike TypeScript)
* Has sound null safety (like Rust)
* Stateful hot reload (like no one else - Erlang maybe?)
* Runs on virtually any platform (like C/C++)

In addition:

* Has great developer tooling
* Interops easily with other languages
* Has an outstanding UI framework (Flutter)
* Nicely mixes with native UI components
* Is really easy to learn and work with

Today, I learned that the full compiler, analyzer, and tooling can even run on a web page. Mind blown. 🤯 What else did I miss?

@TObikansi35734 @viktorlidholt Serverpod is indeed super solid for the backend.
Flutter is an awesome choice for rapid cross-platform dev.
Saves so much time not having to mess with JS/RN bridge.
Ever found yourself spending too much time on boilerplate Firebase setup?

[Viktor Lidholt @viktorlidholt]

I held this talk almost three years ago. So much has happened with @ServerpodDev since then, it’s actually crazy to think about. Still, really cool what we already had back then. If you are curious about game development, there are lots of gold here! 👾

Built a little ChatGPT-style chatbot with Flutter + @ServerpodDev
Still in progress, but understanding the architecture, real-time streaming, and backend flow has been a big part of the build.
So far Serverpod has been great 💯

I asked 650 Flutter developers on LinkedIn and X about how they use agentic coding when building their apps. Only 9% of developers still write all their code manually, and 49% never touch the code. As a community, we have everything to gain if we can improve the quality of the code we generate.

The AI agents aren't very good at writing code for Dart packages they haven’t been extensively trained on, or even for the latest versions of libraries. The solution is to provide the models with relevant context. I think many of us already do this to a certain extent through custom rules and skills. But the rules often become outdated as we upgrade dependencies in our projects and new features are added.

What if we could bundle the AI agent skills with the Dart packages while keeping them version-controlled and up-to-date? This is where the idea for package:skills comes from. I’ve spent the last few weeks building a command-line tool that automatically installs AI agent skills relevant to your Flutter app. Package maintainers can simply add a “skills” directory to their Dart package, and the skills will be added to the user’s IDE when they run “skills get”. It even automatically detects your IDE and places the skills in the correct locations.

Currently, only a few packages are supported. Severpod and Relic, of course, plus some other 3rd-party packages. But the tool will also install the official Flutter skills from Google. So, regardless of which packages you use, running “skills get” will instantly improve your code generation.

Wanna try it out? Just run “dart pub global activate skills” followed by “skills get” (in the root of your Flutter/Dart project).

If you are a package maintainer, consider adding a skills directory to your package with relevant skills. You can find detailed instructions on Pub. For packages that haven’t added skills yet, we are also building a community-maintained skills registry. Please reach out if you want to contribute or discuss. Let’s build this together, share our progress and learnings, and grow as a community. The better we can make the code generation experience, the stronger Flutter will be.
