| ## What is it? |
| |
| Dart DevTools is a suite of performance tools for Dart and Flutter. It's currently in |
| preview release, but we're actively working on improvements and on shipping new versions. |
| |
| ## What can I do with it? |
| |
| DevTools supports inspecting the UI layout and state of a Flutter app, diagnosing UI |
| jank performance issues in a Flutter app, source-level debugging of a Flutter or Dart |
| command-line app, and viewing general log and diagnostics information about a running |
| app. |
| |
| We expect developers to use DevTools in conjunction with their existing IDE or |
| command-line based development workflow. |
| |
| ## How do I install it? |
| |
| See the |

| <a href="{{ "/vscode" | relative_url }}">VS Code</a>, and |
| <a href="{{ "/cli" | relative_url }}">command line</a> pages for installation |
| instructions. |
