I need to know if there is any way or plugin to run dart code on Xcode for flutter app development. If there is any mention here, every time I searched on internet it only shows me flutter commands for terminal to run app on iOS. I want my IDE to be XCODE for flutter development. here is what flutter official documentations says when I ask same question Flutter Documentation about MacOS Thanks in advance.

There is no such plugin for XCode. – Günter Zöchbauer Mar 12 '19 at 10:37

You are sure about it, i thought so also but if they have for Android Studio, they might have one for Xcode too. – Ahsan Mar 12 '19 at 10:38

Yes, I'm sure. Dart officially supported IntelliJ/Webstorm for many years and Android Studio is pretty much the same. VSCode is a community project that Google supports. There haven't been any XCode efforts been mentioned so far. – Günter Zöchbauer Mar 12 '19 at 10:40

VSCode plugin isn't exactly a "community" project. Danny is on contract to Google, so he's a lot more of an insider. – Randal Schwartz Mar 13 '19 at 01:40

You can install and use flutter on macOS. But you can not use XCode as IDE, officially they announced either use Android Studio / IntelliJ or Visual Studio Code.
For Android Studio / IntelliJ:
https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/editor?tab=androidstudio
For Visual Studio Code:
https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/editor?tab=vscode
As a suggestion iOS or other developer should use VSCode its light weighted and more understandable and android developer have their own option.

Dart and Flutter are officially supported by IntelliJ/Android Studio and VSCode.
I think there is some integration with VIM and Emacs, but not officially supported. There is no integration with XCode though.
