- Works Everywhere: This tool works on all devices your Flutter app runs on, like phones, tablets, and even the web.
- Get Data: Your app can fetch information from websites, like weather forecasts, news articles, or even funny cat pictures.
- Send Data: Want to submit a form or upload a photo? The http package lets your app send information to websites.
- Login and Security: Need to log in to a website or send secure information? The http package helps you do that safely.
- Add the Tool: It's like adding a new ingredient to your app recipe. Just tell Flutter to use the http package.
