Mobile meetup - Reactive programming in Android @Talentica

The world of Android is asynchronous. Be it network calls, database operations, IO or parsing. Trying to deal with these requires either a lot of boilerplate code (handler threads, messages, and queues ) or a sufficiently developed proven solution like reactive programming.

In this meetup we will explore fundamentals of reactive programming and how to fit it in android app development ecosystem.

Agenda:
What is it and why use it ?
Reactive extensions (ReactiveX or Rx)
RP basics
RP components
Concerns about android app development
RxJava and RxAndroid FTW
Networking with Retrofit and RxJava
Live demos
