Managing the Reactive World with RxJava - Jake Wharton

Explore the world of asynchronous programming and reactive streams in this 59-minute conference talk from Philly ETE 2017. Dive into the fundamentals of RxJava, learning how to model and manage asynchronous data sources effectively. Discover the tools provided by RxJava to handle reactive programming, including observables, operators, and factory methods. Examine the concept of back pressure and its importance in reactive streams. Gain insights into source specializations and their applications in real-world scenarios. Investigate the implementation of a User Manager using RxJava principles. Finally, look ahead to the future of Java and its impact on reactive programming, with a focus on the Flow class introduced in Java 9.
