RxSwift: ReactiveX for Swift
Xcode 7 Swift 2.1 required
About Rx
Rx is a generic abstraction of computation expressed through Observable<Element> interface.
This is a Swift version of Rx.
It tries to port as many concepts from the original version as possible, but some concepts were adapted for more pleasant and performant integration with iOS/OSX environment.
Cross platform documentation can be found on ReactiveX.io.
Like the original Rx, its intention is to enable easy composition of asynchronous operations and event/data streams.
KVO observing, async operations and streams are all unified under abstraction of sequence. This is the reason why Rx is so simple, elegant and powerful.
I came here because I want to ...
... understand
- why to use rx?
- how RxSwift works? Getting Started Guide
- what is that
Driver,ControlProperty,Variable... and why do they exist? Units - the math behind Rx
- what are those hot/cold observable sequences?
- how does the the public API look like
... install
- Integrate RxSwift/RxCocoa with my app. Installation Guide
... hack around
- with example app. Running Example App
- with operators in playgrounds. Playgrounds
... interact
- All of this is great, but it would be nice to talk with other people using RxSwift and exchange experiences.
