How do you handle asynchronous operations in Flutter?
Asynchronous programming in Flutter is crucial for managing tasks like network requests without blocking the UI.
Here's how to handle it:
- Use
async
andawait
keywords to perform asynchronous operations. - Utilize
Future
andStream
classes for handling results and events. - Update the UI using state management techniques after the asynchronous operation completes.
Example of fetching data asynchronously:
Future fetchData() async { ... }
This method can be called in a widget's lifecycle method to load data when the widget is built.
