Core Principles & Cross-Platform Rules Avoid Treating File Paths as Raw Strings Native file paths on Windows use backslashes ( \ ), whereas macOS and Linux use forward slashes ( / ). String operations like .contains('foo/') , .startsWith('foo/') , or .split('/') silently fail on Windows native paths. String interpolation like '$dir/$file' injects forward slashes on Windows and produces duplicate slashes ( // ) when $dir ends with a trailing slash.
