NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

By putting IObservables and IObservers on an equal footing with IEnumerables and IEnumerators, Rx for .NET allows developers to use their existing knowledge of LINQ (Language Integrated Query) operators to query and compose asynchronous operations and event-based code using a common underlying abstraction of observable event streams. Microsoft has also released RxJS to bring the benefits of reactive programming to JavaScript. They open sourced the entire Rx framework, making it useful for Windows rich client applications and single-page JavaScript applications.
