Reactive Extensions: Beyond the Basics

by Dan Lew | at MinneBar 10 | 3:45 – 4:35 in Gandhi | View Schedule

Do you already know the basic observer pattern of reactive extensions and want to take it a step further? Have you been working with reactive code for a couple months but have some lingering questions? Then this is the talk for you!

I'll go over some of the lessons I've learned after using RxJava for a while, such as:

  • Subscription management
  • Hot vs. cold Observables
  • Sharing Observables
  • When to use Subjects
  • Custom Operators
  • Backpressure
  • ...And maybe more (as I think of things to say)!

(Though the talk will have a basis in RxJava, by the nature of reactive extensions the knowledge can apply to any platform's implementation.)
