FVM (Flutter Version Management) is a command-line tool for installing, caching, and switching between multiple Flutter SDK versions on a per-project basis. It keeps Flutter environments consistent across teams and CI pipelines, and is accompanied by a GUI companion app called Sidekick.

Use cases

• manage multiple flutter sdk versions on one machine
• pin a specific flutter version per project
• switch flutter channels without reinstalling the sdk
• keep my team on the same flutter version
• test a new flutter release without breaking my main setup
• install flutter from a specific commit
• ensure consistent flutter version in ci pipelines

When to choose

• You work across multiple Flutter projects that require different SDK versions
• Your team needs reproducible, consistent Flutter environments across machines and CI
• You frequently test Flutter channels, releases, or specific commits
• You want fast SDK switching instead of slow channel-change reinstalls

When to avoid

• You only ever use a single Flutter version globally and never switch
• You don't develop with Flutter or Dart at all
• You prefer relying solely on your IDE's bundled Flutter SDK management
