Practical Reactive Streams with Monix

Stream processing is a hot topic today and it’s easy to get lost among all the possibilities. In this live coding session we will explore the Reactive Streams approach used by the Monix project - one of the Scala implementations of the Reactive Streams concepts. On an almost real-life example we’re going to walk through both the basics and some more advanced usages of the library.

The code to be presented is available at https://github.com/rucek/reactive-streams-with-monix
