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 ofthinking 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.
