dart doesn't do C++ interop

I think there will need to be exceptions to a strict race-free model eto not take away from dart‘s current capabilities, and without forcing people into something like a borrow checker. Swift has `@unchecked Sendable` which lets you tell the compiler "I promise I'll take care myself to keep everything in there race-free".
What I‘ve been missing in Swift are tools that let me add safety _within_ such @unchecked Sendables. There's the Swift Atomics lib: https://www.swift.org/blog/swift-atomics/, but its quite limited in its capabilities. So for now, I find myself reaching for tools provided by the community, like pointfree's LockIsolated: https://github.com/pointfreeco/swift-concurrency-extras/blob....
- Built for embedded devices and already has RISC-V support
- Already has WASM was a compilation target
- Not just an LSP but amazing VSCode tooling
- Native C, C++, Java, Rust and JavaScript interop and a .NET bridge is in the works it seems.
- Typed "throws"
- Static linking (in development)
- Data-race free by default
Unique features to Swift:
- Distributed actors for concurrency that run on distant machines. (This is doable but not native to the language)
- non-copy RAII generic types (not actually sure what this is so I assume it’s not in Dart)
