Stock Listing App

This is an example of a Flutter app that lists stock information obtained from a public API. The app displays the stock symbol, the sector it belongs to, and the latest price.

How It Works

1. Package Imports: The code begins by importing necessary packages for Flutter, including the http package for making HTTP requests and the dart:convert package for JSON data manipulation.

2. Main Class (MyApp): The MyApp class is the entry point of the app. It returns an instance of MaterialApp, which is the root of the Flutter UI.

3. Stock Listing Page (StockListPage): This is the main page of the app, which extends StatefulWidget to allow dynamic state updates. It contains a list of stocks.

4. Page State for Stock Listing (_StockListPageState): This class manages the state of the stock listing page. It initializes an empty list of stocks and makes an HTTP request to a public API in the initState() method.

5. Stock Fetching Method (fetchStock): This method uses the http package to make a GET request to the stocks API URL. If the response is successful (status code 200), the JSON data is decoded, and the list of stocks is updated in the state. Otherwise, an exception is thrown.

6. UI Construction (build): The build method constructs the UI of the stock listing page. It displays an AppBar with the title "Stocks" and a ListView.builder that displays each stock as a ListTile.

7. Stock Listing (ListView.builder): This is a scrollable list of stocks, where each stock is displayed as a ListTile containing the stock symbol, sector, and latest price.
