%X The Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope mission, formerly known as GLAST, is the next generation satellite for high-energy gamma-ray astronomy. It was successfully launched on June 11th 2008, and is currently orbiting around the Earth for a planned one-year observation of the full sky. The Large Area Telescope (LAT), its main instrument, with a wide field of view (>2 sr), a large effective area (>8000 cm2 at 1 GeV), sub-arcminute source localization, a large energy range (20MeV - 300 GeV) and a good energy resolution (close to 8% at 1 GeV), has excellent potential to either discover or to constrain a dark matter signal. This contribution reports on current performance of the LAT and reviews the complementary searches for signatures of particle dark matter that the LAT team is currently pursuing.
