When running a Dart or Flutter app, assertions are only enabled in Debug mode.
But in Release mode, they are disabled by default.
If you want to change this behavior, add the --enable-asserts flag when running from the command line.
Or set it globally in your VSCode settings file.
Note: while you can enable asserts in release mode, you probably shoudn't. Asserts are used to warn you of programmer errors during development. As such, you should fix them before release.
