Previous Answer!!

You can set a Boolean value like loaded and set it to true in your listen function and make your build function return your data when loaded is set to true otherwise just throw a CircularProgressIndicator

Edited -- I would not suggest calling setState in a method you call in initState. If the widget is not mounted while the setState is called (as the async operation completes) an error will be reported. I suggest you use a package after_layout

This post will give you an idea to know when the app finishes the build method. So that you can wait for your async method to setState after widget is mounted : https://stackoverflow.com/a/51273797/9206337
