Is Dart support still WIP?

[temeddix]

🚀 Feature Request

We have a demand of using Rust with Dart at Rinf. Is Dart support in serde-reflection still experimental? If it is, what can I do to make it stable?

Motivation

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It looks like Dart support has been present from a long time ago(3 years~), but it is still not marked as stable.

Pitch

Describe the solution you'd like

Dart support being stable.

Describe alternatives you've considered

At Rinf, we are using Protobuf to send messages between Dart and Rust, but using serde will be much more elegant.

Are you willing to open a pull request? (See CONTRIBUTING)

Yes

Additional context

[jerel]

We are still using it (in a large project) several years later and it's feature complete in my opinion. Whether it's officially listed in the README as stable is more of an administrative and maintenance decision by the repo owner.

Great to hear from your experience @jerel.

Technically, we're actually missing something: the support of maps and the more comprehensive e2e tests test_dart_{bcs,bincode}_runtime_on_supported_types in dart_runtime.rs.

There was a task for this in the old repository: novifinancial/serde-reflection#120

[ma2bd]

Just made a new task in this repo: #49

Closing this one now. We can continue the technical discussion on #49
