I noticed that the ListView.builder is still using the articles variable at the end, should be using the response from the future builder?

Thanks for spotting that.
Yes, you’re correct.
I missed changing those parts.

The ListView should use the data from the snapshot.
So it should look like this:

return ListView.builder(
  itemCount: snapshot.data!.length,
  itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int index) {
    return ArticleCard(article: snapshot.data[index]);
  },
);

Added this to the author note and would update the download materials in coming days.

Thanks once again :]
