Dart Frog is built on top of shelf and mason and is inspired by many tools including remix.run, next.js, and express.js.

The goal of Dart Frog is to help developers effectively build backends in Dart. Currently, Dart Frog is focused on optimizing the process of building backends which aggregate, compose, and normalize data from multiple sources.

Dart Frog provides a simple core with a small API surface area in order to reduce the learning curve and ramp-up time for developers. In addition, Dart Frog is intended to help Flutter/Dart developers maximize their productivity by having a unified tech stack that enables sharing tooling, models, and more!

• VS Code: extends VS Code with support for Dart Frog and provides tools for effectively managing Dart Frog projects within VS Code.
