No one can live entirely on their own, nor can any country or society exist in isolation.
-- Daisaku Ikeda
Every language is now having its own way to deal with concurrency and parallel programming, in the case of Dart, the designers created Isolates. By default, Dart is running its procedures inside the main isolate, in a single thread, a bit like JavaScript. Using one thread can have drawbacks, especially when the application deals with I/O and high volume of data. If the Future and Stream classes don't fix the issues, a developer can spawn another Isolate, isolated from the main one, with its own thread. One can imagine this new environment as a totally fresh sandbox... Let see how to play with that.
