How to load JSON assets into a Flutter App?

Question

How do I load a JSON asset into my Flutter app?

My pubspec.yaml file has the following:

assets:     - assets/data.json 

I keep getting stuck trying to load the data. I tried:

final json = JSON.decode(     DefaultAssetBundle.of(context).loadString("assets/data.json") ); 

But I get the error:

The argument type 'Future< String>' can't be assigned to the parameter type 'String'.

Try out :

String data = await DefaultAssetBundle.of(context).loadString("assets/data.json"); final jsonResult = jsonDecode(data); //latest Dart
