Learn the basics of reactive programming and how it makes apps more
responsive. This book shows you how to incorporate reactive programming
into existing development products and cycles using RXSwift and RXCocoa
on iOS and Mac.
As we move away from the traditional paradigm of typing or touching one
step at a time to interact with programs, users expect apps to adapt and
not need constant hand-holding. People today expect their devices to do
much more than just follow commands. They expect devices to react and
adapt. Reactive programming, a new term for asynchronous processing,
requires new app architectures, and you'll learn how these are already
built into iOS and macOS in many places.
As part of this more complex environment, you'll move beyond Cocoa and
Cocoa Touch to incorporate data from Amazon Web Services (AWS),
JavaScript Object Notation (JSON), and other formats, and standards.
Together with the concepts of reactive programming and RxSwift, these
tools help you build more powerful and useful apps that have wide appeal
and use.
What You'll Learn
- Work with tools such as Darwin microkernel, RxSwift, and RxCocoa
- Use Git repositiories and other resoucrces to get into coding
- Create apps that adapt to gestures and UI interaction as well as
what's happening in and around the environment of the app itself.
**Who This Book Is For
