The introduction to Reactive Programming you've been missing

(by @andrestaltz)

So you're curious in learning this new thing called (Functional) Reactive Programming (FRP).

Learning it is hard, even harder by the lack of good material. When I started, I tried looking for tutorials. I found only a handful of practical guides, but they just scratched the surface and never tackled the challenge of building the whole architecture around it. Library documentations often don't help when you're trying to understand some function. I mean, honestly, look at this:

Rx.Observable.prototype.flatMapLatest(selector, [thisArg])

Projects each element of an observable sequence into a new sequence of observable sequences by incorporating the element's index and then transforms an observable sequence of observable sequences into an observable sequence producing values only from the most recent observable sequence.

Create a 5 x 5 grid of blue blocks. When a block is clicked it turns red. Its adjacent block turns green.
If a red block is on the end of a row, the adjacent green block is on the line below on the first column, 
et cetera. When another block is clicked, the previous red/green blocks go back to blue. There will only
ever be one red and one green block on the screen, the rest are always blue.

Only worry about Chrome.
