In Reactive Programming with RxAndroid and Kotlin, you’ll learn how to deliver the kind of experience that the modern user demands. First, you’ll discover why Reactive Programming is a great fit for Android development. Next, you’ll explore how to take on Android’s most pervasive challenges, such as composing network calls, caching data and handling user input. Finally, you’ll see reactive programming and a solid architecture come together to provide an app that is extensible, testable, and performant. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have a solid foundation in reactive programming with RxJava and will go from simply developing apps to architecting apps.
