RxJS in Action

DESCRIPTION

A growing flood of data is aimed at JavaScript applications, and they

need be ready for it. As more and more data is received, applications

must scale to stay operational. There-s also the problem of latency

when data has to be fetched from remote locations. RxJS, or Reactive

Extensions for JavaScript, is a library for transforming, composing,

and consuming streams of data. RxJS combines reactive and functional

programming to give an extensible, asynchronous event handling

system for JavaScript.

RxJS in Action gives readers the development skills they need to create

reactive applications with RxJS. This book is full of theory and

practical examples that build on each other and help readers begin

thinking in a reactive manner. The book begins by teaching the

fundamentals of functional programming, and dives in to the basics of

RxJS and what it means to be reactive. Ne
