Overview of this book

RxJS is a fast, reliable, and compact library for handling asynchronous and event-based programs. It is a first-class citizen in Angular and enables web developers to enhance application performance, code quality, and user experience, so using reactive patterns in your Angular web development projects can improve user interaction on your apps, which will significantly improve the ROI of your applications. This book is a step-by-step guide to learning everything about RxJS and reactivity. You'll begin by understanding the importance of the reactive paradigm and the new features of RxJS 7. Next, you'll discover various reactive patterns, based on real-world use cases, for managing your application’s data efficiently and implementing common features using the fewest lines of code. As you build a complete application progressively throughout the book, you'll learn how to handle your app data reactively and explore different patterns that enhance the user experience and code quality, while also improving the maintainability of Angular apps and the developer's productivity. Finally, you'll test your asynchronous streams and enhance the performance and quality of your applications by following best practices. By the end of this RxJS Angular book, you'll be able to develop Angular applications by implementing reactive patterns.

Defining the requirement

There are two techniques available for publishing real-time data on the web:

  • Pull technique: This is where the client raises a request to get the latest version of data. HTTP polling and HTTP long polling are two examples of implementations of the pull technique.
  • Push technique: This is where the server pushes updates to the client. WebSockets and Server Sent Events are two implementations of the push technique.

In general, push techniques have a lower latency compared to pull ones. We are not going to dive into these techniques in detail and compare them, as it is not the goal of this chapter. However, we will use the WebSocket technology for our requirement.

In short, the WebSocket protocol is a stateful communication protocol that establishes a low-latency bidirectional communication channel between a client and a server. This way, messages can be sent back and forth between the server and the client. The following diagram illustrates...
