Examples from contributor days

At RxJS contributor days we discussed adding an examples/ folder to the repo and populating it with some real use cases for RxJS. Here are the examples we came up with:

• Design an API using RxJS
• Synchronizing async executables
• Sharing expensive fetch data in a lazy way
• Encouraging immutability
• Exponential back off (dealing with a rate limited API)
• Dealing with a bad connection / flaky server
• Message Queues / Reactive events
• Stock Ticker
• Autocomplete
• Random Walk
• DOM Events (Double click / Drag n Drop)
• Polling
• Multiple HTTP Requests
• Canvas - Slow Brushstroke
• Color Picker
• Animation timeline
• Game scoreboard
• Progress of upload (or any ajax)
• Task manager
• Custom backpressure
• Observables that return generators or promises
• Reqest / Reply pattern on websockets
• Writing ‘async’ module with RxJS
• Real error / exception handling
• Undo and Redo
• Wrapping now observable processes inside observables
• Redux inside RxJS
• Filesystem.js and Process.js
• Useful .let() examples (combine throttle and debounce for example)
• Schedulers (dealing with large, stack destroying recursive processes)
• Re-entrant examples (see RX issues for specific problems)
• Cancellation
• Framework specific examples (Angular, React)
• Effective Interop
