Dart Asynchronous Flow

bookUsing async and await

When working with asynchronous operations in Dart, you often need to handle values that are not immediately available, such as data from a network request or a file read. Dart provides the Future class for these operations. Traditionally, you might chain multiple asynchronous steps using the then method, which can quickly become difficult to read and maintain as the code grows in complexity.

The async and await keywords make asynchronous Dart code much easier to write and understand. You mark a function as async to indicate it returns a Future, and then use await before a Future-returning expression to pause execution until the operation completes. This allows you to write asynchronous code that looks and behaves much like synchronous code, making it easier to follow and reason about.

Using async and await helps you avoid deeply nested callbacks and improves error handling, since you can use try and catch blocks as you would in synchronous code. This leads to cleaner, more maintainable code, especially when you have to perform several asynchronous operations in sequence.
