Today we have a tremendous episode of Flutter Explained. I have the honour to explain to you guys how a future request works. In one of my episodes, I explained the future builder but I left the network request out of scope. Today I will turn this around, we ignore the UI and concentrate only on the Network request.

We will create a Person Model that is our representation of a Person from the API in Dart. The fromJson Constructor will be very handy in that situation to create for us the Person object. After that, we will create a Future request with the HTTP package from pub.dev to get all the information that we want to display.
