I reinvented this wheel when I wrote a backend with Node.js - my goal was to decouple push notifications service from business logic, so I used Redis' PubSub commands so that the backend publishes some data, and the push notifications service would send appropriate messages to clients.

How is this different from event emitter?

I have been doing this for years. I have always called it "Event Driven Programming"

Favorite moment - You should click the <Subscribe> button so you will get a <Notification> when the next video comes out. :D

Hey Surma, thanks for the video. Perfect as always. But the intro is soooo long. Can you reduce it?

[pushpaaji]

Hmm sounds similar to observable pattern.

Native websockets are using events, and they are not coupled with the DOM or with any visual input/output.

Why are we avoding the name "PubSub"? Isn't this the actual term for this? You also get much more hits, when searching for PubSub
