    As Reactive approach has many advantage than another approach like, future, completeablefuture, event kotlin couroutine. doing stream chaining operator will much easy using reactive approach, in this case RxJava. https://medium.com/@gumay.raditya/proper-way-to-use-compose-in-rxjava-f89b9746a5fe

    Hey, fellow Kotliners! I have just published a new blog post about why one should learn Android. The blog post is very different from the usual advice you find on the internet. In fact, it answers a more global question and leaves the original one up to your decision: https://hackernoon.com/why-should-i-learn-android-14687b27e062 It should be a good read even if you are not interested in Android or mobile development. Feedback, medium claps, and social shares are warmly welcome, and will make me super happy! 😊
