Question: Where is the ARB schema officially published?
Sorry if this is out of scope, but is this project the canonical source for the ARB schema now? I've failed to find anything more official amoungst the Dart/Flutter documentation.
I note that the schema was originally at google/app-resource-bundle, but it seems to have diverged somewhat since the last update there in 2018.
Very good question. Currently it is hosted here as the main source of truth. I was also thinking about re-activating https://github.com/google/app-resource-bundle to host a Dart package, a JS package etc. for parsing ARB files. I am open to any ideas or PRs!
Also any place where docs should be updated are welcome.
Thanks for the reply!
To clarify the context of my asking - I'm not a Dart/Flutter developer. I maintain software that parses and generates ARB files. Originally I implemented the 2018 spec, and have only now caught up with the various changes.
In my research it became a point of confusion as to who maintains the spec, what versions exist, and whether it can be considered a standard in its own right (separately from its use in Flutter).
I'm not in a position to submit PRs, but I do have ideas...
It makes sense to me that the wiki in the app-resource-bundle repo remains the source of truth, especially as it's still linked to by many other projects including i18n_extension. I came across the arb-editor by some amount of luck while I was scratching my head over schema changes.
Yeah it makes sense to reactivate that repo. I will probably delete all the code inside it though, as it is unmaintained and thus dead.
Maybe move the schema to https://www.schemastore.org/json/? That way it's automatically picked up by lots of editors without the user even having to install an extension

We should probably publish it there as well! I don't think we want the source of truth to be in a third party repo though, I would rather have that be in the google or dart-lang orgs, especially as we are revamping it a bit at the moment.
