Understanding the principles of Rx, Flow, Compose, and more, through Programming Paradigms

on YouTube ↗32m

" summary

Argues that RxJava, Kotlin Flow and Compose share core ideas but differ by paradigm, builds from silicon to machine code to show a declarativeness gradient and why discrete time streams are the right model for reactive libraries, contrasts discrete synchronous = reactive with continuous FRP and coroutines, demonstrates common bugs (calling getValue vs fromCallable), shows small listener→Rx bridges and recommends keeping side effects in subscribe and preferring a single Rx stream for determinism to reduce accidental nondeterminism.
