Who uses Dart (updated) (#4601)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This is a revision of #4577 (closing that in favor of this, added
original author as co-author here) because I couldn't add changes to
that contributor's fork. Thanks for getting this started @MikiPAUL!

Fixes #4144 

Question for reviewers: I'm unsure why the page was taken down
originally ([archived
here](https://web.archive.org/web/20190402200008/www.dartlang.org/community/who-uses-dart)).
Should I add that content to this PR?

Mobile and web apps are two of
the most common uses for the Dart language.
Learn about and try some examples
of where Dart is used.

The popular [Flutter toolkit][Flutter] relies on the Dart language,
so developers writing Flutter apps—for Android, iOS, or other targets—use Dart.
To find a list of Flutter apps, visit the [Flutter showcase.][showcase]
## Flutter

[showcase]: {{site.flutter}}/showcase
The popular [Flutter toolkit][] is powered by the
Dart language, runtimes, tooling, and libraries.
Over _one million_ Flutter apps for Android,
iOS, the web, and other targets, are all Dart-based.

Google engineers use Dart to create many apps,
including some that are essential to Google's business.
For example, if you use the [Google Ads][] web or mobile app,
you're using a Dart app that supports much of Google's revenue.
Also, the Assistant team at Google uses Dart for features in Smart Displays,
as described in [this announcement.][flutter-io19]
The [Flutter showcase][] features popular Flutter apps, including:

* [BMW][]
> "The BMW Group is establishing itself as a leading automotive app developer
and provider with a Flutter architecture developed 100% in-house."
* [Sonos][]:
> "...If setup is the “grand entryway” to the Sonos ecosystem, Flutter forms
its elegant façade..."
* [Alibaba][]:
> "When the Xianyu team was challenged to improve their user experience by
developing an app that was consistent across platforms, had beautiful graphics,
and still loaded fast, they turned to Flutter."
* [PUBG][]:
> "When the PUBG MOBILE team wanted to add a community module to allow players
from all over the world to share gameplay clips and more, they turned to Flutter."

## Google

Dart is used in almost every product group at Google:

* The [Google Play Console][] lets app publishers market Android apps, and
is written completely in Dart.
* The [Google Ads][] team continues to grow, with
hundreds of SWEs primarily writing Dart code.
* The [Google Assistant][] team uses Flutter and Dart to
drive the overall system UI of their Smart Displays.
* Both the UI and much of the back-end code for the
[Google Nest Hub][] and Hub Max devices are written in Dart.
* The list goes on, with many more Google applications
made using Dart and Flutter:

* [Google Pay][]
* [Google One][]
* [Google Fibre][]
* [Google Elections][]
* [Google Shopping][]
* [Cloud Search][]
* [Family Link][]
* [Google One][]
* [Cloud Search][]

Several other Google teams are currently rewriting their projects in Flutter.
In all, Google has thousands of developers
writing millions of lines of code in Dart.

## Community

Beyond Google and Flutter, many companies use Dart
for building their applications:

* [Workiva's][] next-generation client applications for
their productivity suite are built with Dart.
* [Wrike][] uses the [AngularDart][] framework to
develop project management tools.
* [Blossom][] is an agile project management tool built with Dart.
* And many more!

If you build production software with Dart and want to be included in this list,
