    The most typical way to solve this problem is by using Combine's Future or PromiseKit's Promise, or by using RxSwift's flatMap. If you're interested on how this works under the hood, I plan to write another article for this case, but for now you can check my code for a simple Promise in this gist, or check this quite old but incredibly mind blowing talk from Javi Soto.
