Cannot locate Dart SDK

See original GitHub issue

This looks exiting! I tried to install on a Mac, but I get the error that it cannot locate the Dart SDK (Dart-Code: Could not find a Dart SDK to use. Please add it to your PATH or set it in the extensions settings and reload).

I tried to configure it like this, but I still get the error:

$ cat "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Code/User/settings.json"
// Place your settings in this file to overwrite the default settings
{
    "dart.sdkPath": "/usr/local/Cellar/dart/1.18.1/"
}
$

I got it to work! The directory layout homebrew gives you is a bit odd – the correct path is:

/usr/local/Cellar/dart/1.18.1/libexec/

not

/usr/local/Cellar/dart/1.18.1/

$ which dart
/usr/local/bin/dart
$ ll /usr/local/bin/dart
