is a model of programming focuses on data flow and change propagation.ReactiveX

(Reactive Extensions): a library for composing asynchronous and event-based programs by using observable sequences.RxAndroid
is a lightweight extension to RxJava that providers a Scheduler for Android’s Main Thread, as well as the ability to create a Scheduler that runs on any given Android Handler class.- The two main classes are
