  - Update `build_runner` constraint to `^2.4.0`.
  - Support changes in the SDK layout for Dart 3.0.

## 2.7.12

- Migrate Webdev to null-safety.

## 2.7.11

  value. If `null` is given as a value (default), fall back to the existing
  behavior (i.e. creating/reusing a temp directory).

  Note: not supported for Windows yet due to flakiness it introduces.

  Example using user-specified directory:

  ```
    webdev serve \
      --debug --debug-extension \
      --user-data-dir='/Users/<user>/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome'
  ```

  Example using auto-detected directory:

## Breaking Changes

- The `serve` command will now only serve `web` by default.
- Deprecated the `--hot-reload` and `--live-reload` flags, in favor of the new
  `--auto=<action>` option which performs an action whenever a build completes.
  - The current supported actions are `restart` and `refresh`, which correspond
    to the old `--hot-reload` and `--live-reload` flags.
- Support building with `package:build_daemon`. This allows shared builds as
  long as the build arguments are compatible.
  - This should not affect most users but might break some workflows.
  - Prompts are not supported, so you may have to pass the
    `-- --delete-conflicting-outputs` argument if you used to hit `y` at the
    prompt.

      except for supported frameworks which will enable some tabs.
