I also started a stackoverflow question about it: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37568953/dart-command-line-app-on-windows-cant-import-packages

A simple self-contained command line script might work without pubspec.yaml and without conforming to the pub package layout conventions but when packages (like args in the tutorial) AFAIK this can't work anymore. The tutorial should explain that or at least point to pages that do.
