-  ### Unchanged `getHeroes` API
+  ### Get hero by id
+  The `HeroDetailComponent` asks the `HeroService` to fetch a single hero to edit.
   
-  Although we made significant *internal* changes to `getHeroes()`, the public signature did not change.
-  We still return a !{_Promise}. We won't have to update any of the components that call `getHeroes()`.
+  The `HeroService` currently fetches all heroes and then finds the desired hero 
+  by filtering for the one with the matching `id`.
+  That's fine in a simulation. It's wasteful to ask a real server for _all_ heroes when we only want one.
+  Most web APIs support a _get-by-id_ request in the form `api/hero/:id` (e.g., `api/hero/11`).
 
-  Our stakeholders are thrilled with the added flexibility from the API integration.
+  Update the `HeroService.getHero` method to make a _get-by-id_ request,
+  applying what we just learned to write `getHeroes`:

+  It's almost the same as `getHeroes`. 
+  The URL identifies _which_ hero the server should update by encoding the hero id into the URL
+  to match the `api/hero/:id` pattern.
+
+  We also adjust to the fact that the `data` in the response is a single hero object rather than array.
