To work with this Module 3 code, you need the Dart SDK and Dart Editor, which you can download from www.dartlang.org. Simply unzip the downloaded file and you are good to go. Because Dart Editor is based on Eclipse, you also need a Java Runtime (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre8-downloads-2133155.html). Choose the appropriate version for your system (32-bit or 64-bit); after the download, double-click on the .exe file to install it.
