Key benefits

Understand the purpose behind RxJava development and use the right tools to make your application Reactive and asynchronous
Apply Reactive principles with Java to make your app responsive, reliable, and scalable
Implement backpressure with Reactive constructs: subscription and subscriber

Description

Reactive programming is a programming paradigm oriented toward data flows and the propagation of change: programming with asynchronous data streams. Apps in recent times have an abundance of real-time events of every kind that create a highly interactive experience for the user. However, the right tools are needed to manage these, and Reactive programming is the answer. This course is a step-by-step guide to creating applications with Java 12 by applying Reactive programming. You will get hands-on experience; each section will build on the previous one, so that you will be able to make your app responsive and reliable by implementing Reactive principles with Java. You'll also apply the best data structures and algorithms that optimize functions—all using functional Reactive programming. By the end of this course, you'll be fully equipped with the tools and techniques needed to implement robust, event-driven, and Reactive applications. The code bundle for this course is available at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Hands-On-Reactive-Programming-with-Java-12

Who is this book for?

If you are a Java developer and want to explore Reactive programming and build responsive and resilient asynchronous applications using Reactive stream implementations in your applications, this course is for you. All you need to get started is a familiarity with basic Java object-oriented programming concepts.
