About this title

Synopsis

DESCRIPTION

In today's world, user interfaces have to be highly dynamic,

asynchronous, and reliable. To meet these demands, the programming

world is undergoing a radical shift towards something called

Functional Reactive Programming (FRP), or just Reactive

Programming. FRP offers programmers a new way to construct their

applications so that they respond directly to change. And developers

spend less time tracing obscure problems and more time focusing on

what their code should be doing.

Grokking Reactive User Interfaces teaches programmers a new way of

thinking about programs and data as well as how to build robust and

extensible user interfaces. This well-illustrated book presents lots of

concrete, real-world problems and then shows how FRP helps to solve

them. It begins by looking at examples that get readers into the mindset

of data flows and goes on to introduce the concept of a View Model.

Readers also learn how FRP enables them to better manage change and

introduce new features. The final part of this book focuses on higherlevel

application design concerns and strategies as you look at

architectural approaches and frameworks that work well with FRP

thinking.

KEY FEATURES

• Provides lots of illustrations and real-life app examples

• Teaches a new way of thinking about programs and data

• Using FRP in day-to-day programming

• Teaches how to handle increasing complexity in UIs

AUDIENCE

Readers should have a basic understanding of mobile UI development and

be familiar with traditional object-oriented programming paradigms.

ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY

FRP offers a new way to construct applications so that they respond directly

to change. FRP is not a typical technology B that obviously and

immediately replaces an inferior technology A. It’s more of a way of

thinking rather than a mechanical solution.

About the Author

AUTHOR BIO
Timo Tuominen has used FRP and RxJava extensively as an architect of a

major Android project for Samsung while working with Futurice. As a

consultant he has developed dozens of agile projects on almost all relevant

platforms – and a number of dead ones - nowadays bringing FRP to

wherever he can.

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
