Speaker Topics - No Fluff Just Stuff

Reactive Programming with RxJava

I like to call Reactive Programming as Functional Programming++. There is so much similarity between FP and Rx and yet there are some significant differences. In this hands on workshop we will dive into what Reactive Programming is, learn about the APIs and capabilities, using RxJava as a vehicle.

While the examples will use RxJava, the concepts are general enough that you can readily benefit from the content, like backpressure and error handling, even if you are using other reactive libraries.
