As you’ll see in the next chapter, Futures come in handy in other places. It is easy to see why. Through a very basic application in the Hipster MVC library, we have significantly improved the maintainability of the library as well as made it easier for developers to use the library.

Having built-in objects codifying this behavior is a big win for Dart. It is not hard to build something similar in JavaScript. Even so, built-in Futures allow us to focus on writing beautiful code, not on writing code that allows us to write beautiful code.
