1. Calling fetch returns a promise that resolves to a Response object
2. To get at the actual content of a response, you can use its text method.
3. the initial promise is resolved as soon as the response’s headers have been received
4. the response body might take a while longer, this again returns a promise

fetch("example/data.txt")
  .then(resp => resp.text())
  .then(text => console.log(text));
// → This is the content of data.txt
