+Dart Web Developer Service
+
+__*Note: Under heavy development.*__
+
+The Dart Web Developer Service (DWDS) allows developer tools designed
+to work with the native Dart VM to also work with Dart Web
+applications compiled with
+[DDC](https://webdev.dartlang.org/tools/dartdevc), built/served with
+[webdev](https://webdev.dartlang.org/tools/webdev), and run in Chrome.
+
+DWDS will be integrated into the webdev.
+
+At a basic level, DWDS proxies between:
+* Developer tools that are written against the [Dart VM Service Protocol](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/blob/master/runtime/vm/service/service.md)
+* Execution environments that expose the
+[Chrome DevTools Protocol](https://chromedevtools.github.io/devtools-protocol)
