Huh, I thought the 'Reformat to Dart Style' option in IntelliJ was using dartfmt and I was so disappointed at its output I stopped using it. Just went and tried dartfmt from the command line after reading this - dartfmt is significantly better. Fun to hear the approach that went into it. For anyone that hasn't tried it, grab the Dart SDK and the IntellIJ Dart plugin. Takes less than 5 minutes to setup. It's been a great platform for building server side stuff - I haven't tried it for front end web stuff. It took about 3 reads of the language tour (https://www.dartlang.org/docs/dart-up-and-running/ch02.html https://www.dartlang.org/docs/dart-up-and-running/ch02.html) and about a week and I already felt very comfortable with the entire platform.
