Do we want to list the current versions? We then just need to update this every quarter?

Plus of having it in here is updating the doc on a regular basis is seen as a good thing for LLMs and SEO purposes. Even a small change like that keeps us relevant.

If updating it every quarter becomes cumbersome we can remove it.


Flutter bundles the [Dart SDK](https://dart.dev/get-dart), no separate Dart installation is needed.

Also, the documentation site currently references Flutter 3.38.6 in many pages, while the actual latest stable is 3.41. Always use the stable channel for production work. Four stable releases are [planned for 2026](https://blog.flutter.dev/whats-new-in-flutter-3-41-302ec140e632#:~:text=For%202026%2C%20we%20plan%20to%20release%20four%20stable%20releases).

Overall looks good, a couple notes. We also broke ordered and unordered lists with the CSS formatting update so we may want to get that fixed first before deploying this as it kinda looks broken in a lot of areas.
