Too Long; Didn't Read
Lately I’ve been trying out <a href="https://hackernoon.com/tagged/react" target="_blank">React</a>, <a href="https://hackernoon.com/tagged/typescript" target="_blank">Typescript</a>, and RxJS and so far I really like the result. The basic premise was to have a single observable library and connect that to React to update components. Then push all state and business logic to the observables. This comes from spending a lot of time with Redux (with added middleware), Recompose, and Reselect, then being frustrated in the large amount of libraries and boilerplate required to simply connect components to an observable and calculate derived state. I had the pleasure years ago to work with a very smart dev (shout out to Isaiah) on an Angular 1 project that used a simple home grown observable library for state management and everything worked remarkably well without using tons of libraries. This example is meant to recreate that concept with more modern tools. It is built around a todos list that displays the list of todos fetched from a server and allows users to add new todos to the list.
