Elevator Pitch
You have heard for React, right? Well, it’s not reactive at all. This talk will show you how to think in a Reactive way, how to properly use streams and improve your apps. There is something cool about functional programming, pure functions and pure data streams that you should know.
Description
What is reactive programming? A lot of people have this question. Thinking in a reactive way is not that hard but it takes some time to understand all things and to change the way you look at development. In this talk we should learn everything about reactive programming and how can it help us to create better JavaScript apps. We’ll also see some good examples and also talk about functional programming.
Since React is most popular framework these days, I’ll show that it’s not reactive at all and what are some great alternatives to it, such as Cycle.js. It’s a new framework that’s becoming more popular every day.
The talk should be separated into 4 parts. They are: 1. Introduction to Reactive programming 2. Why is Reactive programming so awesome and why you should start using it on your next project? 3. What about React, is it reactive? 4. Introduction to Cycle.js
All parts will have code and examples from real projects.
Notes
Regarding technical requirements, I don’t need anything special.
I think that I am the best person for this talk because I’ve been using a reactive paradigm for a long time now and I have real project experience. I love to experiment with it and I think that I’ve learned enough to share my knowledge with the world! I have already given talks about Reactive programming and Cycle.js and people love it!
