fvm
Flutter Version Management: A simple cli to manage Flutter SDK versions.
Why not use Flutter Channels?
If all you want is to use the latest stable version or a specific channel once in a while, you should be using Flutter Channels.
This tool allows you similar functionality to Channels; however it caches those versions locally, so you don't have to wait for a full setup every time you want to switch versions.
Also, it allows you to grab versions by a specific tag, i.e. 1.2.0. In case you have projects in different Flutter SDK versions and do not want to upgrade.
Easiest way NPM & Yarn
