Introduction to RxJava for Android Developers

This talk aims to introduce RxJava and the concepts of Reactive Programming to Android developers. We will focus on the Android world, its challenges and how to tackle them using “reactive” open source libraries like RxAndroid, RxLifecycle and RxBindings.

2. Reactive Programming
3. Reactive Programming
4. ReactiveX is a combination of the best ideas from the Observer pattern, the Iterator pattern, and functional programming
7. Easily create event streams or data streams. CREATE

9. Compose and transform streams with query-like operators. COMBINE Subscribe to any observable stream to perform side effects. LISTEN Easily create event streams or data streams. CREATE
11. RxJava
12. public interface Dog {
 
 public String getName();
 
 public boolean isTrained();
 }
13. public interface Dog {
 
 public String getName();

 } public interface DogHandler {
 
 Observable<Dog> trainDogs();
 }
14. DogHandler john = DogHandlerFactory.get(DogHandlerFactory.JOHN);
 
 Observable<Dog> trainedDogs = john.trainDogs();
15. Create
16. public class John implements DogHandler { 
 @Override public Observable<Dog> trainDogs() {
 
 }
 }
17. public class John implements DogHandler { 
 @Override public Observable<Dog> trainDogs() {

 }
19. public class John implements DogHandler {

23. public class John implements DogHandler {

 }
25. public class John implements DogHandler {

27. Combine
