Things that programmers don't know but should

(A book that I might eventually write!)

Gary Bernhardt

I imagine each of these chapters being about 2,000 words, making the whole book about the size of a small novel. For comparison, articles in large papers like the New York Times average about 1,200 words. Each topic gets whatever level of detail I can fit into that space. For simple topics, that's a lot of space: I can probably walk through a very basic, but working, implementation of the IP protocol.

React with RxJS, reactive way :)

Observable React elements with RxJS

Note: if you want to skip history behind this, and just looking for final result see: rx-react-container

When I just started using RxJS with React, I was subscribing to observables in componentDidMount and disposing subscriptions at componentWillUnmount.

But, soon I realised that it is not fun to do all that subscriptions(that are just updating property in component state) manually, and written mixin for this...

Later I have rewritten it as "high order component" and added possibility to pass also obsarvers that will receive events from component.
