About This BookInstall and set up RxJava for Android developmentImplement the Reactive paradigm for Android programming using RxJavaCreate cutting edge real world Android apps with Reactive programming.Who This Book Is ForAre you an android developer trying to figure out how to use reactive paradigm for your programming needs? If yes then this is the book for you. No previous knowledge of RxJava is required.What You Will LearnSet up an environment for asynchronous programming that is reactive Android programmingWrite custom observables and higher-level abstractionsOrchestrate multiple calls using Reactive programming principlesFetch remote financial data using RxJavaIntegrate and process Twitter streams gracefullyUtilize Reactive programming to develop interactive and responsive Android appsCreate your own application to follow financial stock updates in real-time based on selected companies'symbolsIntegrate updates from Twitter for those companiesIn DetailWriting code for Android is hard. Writing a high quality code that involves concurrent and parallel tasks is even harder. Ensuring that this code will run without unforeseen race conditions is an the order of magnitude harder. RxJava is a tool that can help write code for such tasks.In this book, a novice developer will be introduced to the wide variety of tools that RxJava provides to enable them to produce robust and high-quality code for their asynchronous tasks by building a relatively simple (and high quality) application using advanced RxJava techniques to produce a high quality product.Part 1 of the book will lead the developer through RxJava's initial setup in Android environment. In Part 2, the reader will learn RxJava 2.0 step-by-step, starting off with stock data processing and display. The developer will learn to choose appropriate Schedulers and to use Retrofit library for remote requests. In Part 3, the reader will also learn advanced topics such as adding integration to Twitter to process its streaming data by combining it with stock data.
