DartPad uses GitHub gists to publicly share your creations.

Share with a gist

DartPad looks for a file named main.dart within your gist.

To share your code with others:

  1. Create a gist with a main.dart file.
  2. Direct DartPad to the gist ID, without any username specified. For example, to view gist.github.com/5c0e154dd50af4a9ac856908061291bc in DartPad, use the URL dartpad.dev/?id=5c0e154dd50af4a9ac856908061291bc.

Some example gists:

Query parameters

  • id - the Gist ID to load
  • sample - alias for id
  • sample_id - alias for id
  • channel - the Flutter SDK channel to use (stable, beta, or main)
  • embed - whether to use the embedded layout (true or false)
  • run - whether to run the snippet automatically (true or false)

Happy sharing!

Share within DartPad

DartPad previously supported sharing and updating Gists directly within the DartPad UI. This is no longer supported. To provide feedback on or support for a potential replacement, check out https://github.com/dart-lang/dart-pad/issues/2733.
