If you followed the standard installation procedure, as described on the Dart official website, WebStorm detects the path to the Dart SDK automatically.

Alternatively, type the path manually or click the Browse button and select the path in the dialog that opens.

If WebStorm recognizes the Dart SDK correctly, its revision number is displayed in the Version read-only field.

Version

In this read-only field, WebStorm shows the revision number of the detected Dart SDK, provided that the SDK is recognized correctly.

Check SDK update

  • Click the Download SDK link and download it from the site.

  • If you have already downloaded the latest SDK version, click the Dart Settings link to switch to the Dart page of the Settings dialog and specify the new SDK location.

From the list, choose the release types of SDK to look in. The available options are:

  • Stable channel

  • Stable and Dev channels

Webdev server port

In this field, specify the port on which the webdev server will start the Dart web app , refer to Running and debugging Dart web applications.

If you are debugging your Dart web application with Dart webdev daemon, configure the port in the Dart Web run/debug configuration, refer to Running and debugging Dart web applications.

The default webdev server port is 53322. If this port is already busy, WebStorm uses the closest free one.
