Does anyone know if there is a designer or plugin for Visual Studio for Dart, similar to the Dart Editor?
With the Dart plugin, you can use Visual Studio Code (VS Code) to develop Dart apps.
Open Visual Studio Code, then press the Extensions icon (or press Ctrl+Shift+X), and find extension(s) with the keyword "dart" as illustrated below. You will see the Dart Code Extension appear in the first position in the results. Now, press "Install" for installation.
Installing Flutter in Visual Studio Code: We can easily download it from the official website of Flutter. Step 2: Set Environment variable path. After downloading Flutter SDK, extract the file and copy the path of the bin folder. Now click on new and paste the path that was copied earlier and save.
Edit: Dart Code, my Dart extension for Visual Studio Code is much more complete than the VS extension I made (includes a working debugger and some flutter integration).
Original answer:
As nobody else seemed to be doing it, I decided to have a stab at this. It's very incomplete, but I've started working on an extension:

The current version of DartVS available to install (v0.6) in Visual Studio is very basic and uses regex for syntax highlighting, and shells out to DartAnalyzer on a per-file basis for errors/warnings. This is not terribly reliable!
A new version of the extension (v0.8/v1) is in-progress which uses Google's Dart Analysis service and is much faster and more reliable, however it's still some way off release :(
A list of planned features for the next release can be found on GitHub:
