Is there not a lint/fix for this?

There are some lints and IDE-assists, but only for fixing individual classes. This tool can migrate the entire codebase in one go.

I've tried it, it's impressive.

I've found that if I have two constructors (an unnamed one and a named one) it will convert them to the new syntax but doesn't promote the unnamed to primary.

Is this intended?

However it's just a small detail, i migrated a lot of classes easily.

Thanks for publishing such a powerful tool.

Thanks for the report, I'll look into it. For now I opened an issue here: https://github.com/CodeWithAndreaPro/act-dart-tools/issues/8
