This example demonstrates a Node.js utility that asynchronously fetches the HTTP status code for a given URL. It first reads a text file using the `fs.readFile` method to extract a domain or URL from its first line, then passes that address to the `request` library’s `getStatusCodeAsync` function, which returns the server’s response code. The visualization shows how file I/O and network requests are chained through callbacks, highlighting the flow of data from local storage to remote servers without any graphical rendering.
