dart fix takes one target directory and it can be the repo root: the analyzer opens a context per nested pubspec.yaml and migrates every package in one pass. Here is the full flag surface, the four things that silently suppress fixes and make a dirty repo report Nothing to fix, why the exit code is useless in CI, and a case where a Flutter transform emits code that does not compile.

The Rider 2026.3 Early Access Program opened on September 7, 2026. Buried under rainbow brackets is the one line that changes a build: dotCover now reports coverage for TUnit tests, given Microsoft.Testing.Platform 2.3.0 and one package reference.

flutter attach has no --flavor option, so the resident compiler it spawns never defines FLUTTER_APP_FLAVOR and the appFlavor const collapses to null on the first hot restart. Three fixes: default-flavor in pubspec.yaml, flutter run --use-application-binary, and a platform channel that reads the flavor natively. Verified on Flutter 3.47.2 / Dart 3.13.2.

WithTerminal() gives a resource an interactive PTY session you can type into from the dashboard or attach to from your own shell. It is experimental, it detaches the debugger, and the Shell option you may have written against is gone.

Install the Android SDK Command-line Tools so the binaries land in <sdk>/cmdline-tools/latest/bin, point ANDROID_HOME at the SDK root, then re-run flutter doctor.

Microsoft is building dotnetup, an official cross-platform tool to install, track, and switch between .NET SDKs and runtimes. Here is what it does and where it stands in June 2026.

Aspire 13.2 ships an --isolated flag that gives each aspire run its own random ports and secrets store. It unblocks multi-checkout work, agent worktrees, and integration tests that need a live AppHost.

JetBrains shipped ReSharper as a VS Code extension with full C# analysis, refactoring, and unit testing. It works in Cursor and Google Antigravity too, and costs nothing for OSS and learning.
