This is all about explaining Reactive programming in a short amount of time.

Why is this important to me?

Reactive programming makes events and callbacks composable. Events are composed in to streams that can be manipulated, filtered, combined, and controlled.

What are the demos?

Search Wikipedia

A Simple event handler

We wire up to the search input textbox and wait for the text to change

Throtteling

We don't want to send a new search until the user is done typing.

Async Request

We set up an asynchronous request and monitor the results

Picking only the response from the most recent request

If I search Re, Reac, and Reactive and the last response is from the first request, my results display will show stale data. How does Research get returned from Reactive?

Drawing on a canvas

Manipulating the event stream

To draw, we need a list of segments. Mouse move events won't work. We'll use Zip and Select to update the stream of move events to a stream of line segments

Combining events

To draw, we only care about move events while the mouse is down. In addition, we need a clear seperation between streams so we don't link two seperate lines.
