Why is fetchAlbum() called in initState()?
Although it’s convenient,
it’s not recommended to put an API call in a build() method.Flutter calls the build() method every time it needs
to change anything in the view,
and this happens surprisingly often.
The fetchAlbum() method, if placed inside build(), is repeatedly
called on each rebuild causing the app to slow down.Storing the fetchAlbum() result in a state variable ensures that
the Future is executed only once and then cached for subsequent
rebuilds.<topic_end>

Complete example
<code_start>import 'dart:async';
import 'dart:convert';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
Future<Album> fetchAlbum() async {
final response = await http
.get(Uri.parse('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/albums/1'));
if (response.statusCode == 200) {
// If the server did return a 200 OK response,
// then parse the JSON.
return Album.fromJson(jsonDecode(response.body) as Map<String, dynamic>);
} else {
// If the server did not return a 200 OK response,
// then throw an exception.
throw Exception('Failed to load album');
}
}

final int userId;
final int id;
final String title;

required this.userId,
