Channels

[ghedeon]

do you use "raw" channels? I've seen that coroutines library on the top of Reactive Streams.

Coroutines library on the top of Reactive streams?
What do you mean?

[gildor]

For now channels (not sure what you mean about "raw") is the only stream-like abstraction in kotlinx.coroutines. later cold streams will be available (which is closet to Rx)

[ghedeon]

it's from java 9: https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/tree/master/reactive/kotlinx-coroutines-reactive

[ghedeon]

but I've got the idea, thank you

[gildor]

This is just an adapter Coroutines -> Rx and Rx -> Coroutines
If you use any reactive-stream implementation and want to use Coroutines, this adapter is must have for you
