Sometimes we need to have multiple Flutter versions on the same machine for different projects. To do this, we should download multiple versions and add those paths to the bash_profile file and our IDE. I will use macOS and Visual Studio Code. I assume that Flutter is already installed. So we should already have a Flutter SDK folder. Let's download a different version of Flutter and place it in the same folder as the current SDK folder. In my case, as a default, I had an older version of Flutter. In addition to that, I downloaded the stable channel and renamed it . Now I have two versions in two different paths: flutter_stable Next, we duplicate the file and rename it to . Actually, we can give it any name. We will use this name instead of the command, like . flutter_stable/bin/ flutter flutter_stable/bin/ flutterstable flutter flutterstable --version Now execute or depending on the shell and add the path of the new version. In my case, it looks like this (I added the second row): nano ~/.bash_profile nano ~/.zshrc export PATH="$PATH:/Users/user/flutter/bin" export PATH="$PATH:/Users/user/flutter_stable/bin" Save, exit, and restart the terminal. Verify if the path is correct with the command . It must give something like this: . which flutterstable /Users/user/flutter_stable/bin/flutterstable Now the and commands should give different versions. flutterstable --version flutter --version Visual Studio Code Every project can use a specific version of Flutter. Open the settings of Visual Studio Code ( ) and search ' '. Select the ' ' in the left menu, click ' ', and add the paths. In my case the result looks like this: Cmd+, flutter sdk paths Dart & Flutter Add item Restart the Visual Studio Code. Now at the bottom right corner, we can select the flutter version: Or to select Flutter SDK. cmd+shift+p As a result, we have two different versions of Flutter and we can use different versions for different projects.
