Introducing RxSwift: Reactive Programming with Swift!

Who Is this Book For?

This book is for iOS developers who already feel comfortable with iOS and Swift, and want to dive deep into development with RxSwift.

If you’re a complete beginner to iOS, we suggest you first read through the latest edition of the iOS Apprentice. That will give you a solid foundation of building iOS apps with Swift from the ground up but you might still need to learn more about intermediate level iOS development before you can work through all chapters in this book.

If you know the basics of iOS development but are new to Swift, we suggest you read through Swift Apprentice first, which goes through the features of Swift using playgrounds to teach the language.

You can find both of these books at our online store: store.raywenderlich.com.

To help celebrate the release of RxSwift: Reactive Programming with Swift, we are offering our readers a taste of what the book has in store.

We’ll be releasing two chapters from the book this week as tutorials on the site, complete with downloadable resources, that you can use to start your journey of learning RxSwift.

Introducing the RxSwift Book Authors

Check out the amazing team of authors behind this book:

Florent Pillet has been developing for mobile platforms since the last century and moved to iOS on day 1. He adopted reactive programming before Swift was announced and has been using RxSwift in production since 2015. A freelance developer, Florent also uses Rx on Android and likes working on tools for developers like the popular NSLogger when he’s not contracting for clients worldwide. Say hello to Florent on Twitter at @fpillet.

Junior Bontognali has been developing on iOS since the first iPhone and joined the RxSwift team in the early development stage. Based in Switzerland, when he’s not eating cheese or chocolate, he’s doing some cool stuff in the mobile space, without denying to work on other technologies. Other than that he organizes tech events, speaks and blogs. Say hello to Junior on Twitter at @bontoJR.

Marin Todorov is one of the founding members of the raywenderlich.com team and has worked on seven of the team’s books. Besides crafting code, Marin also enjoys blogging, teaching, and speaking at conferences. He happily open-sources code. You can find out more about Marin at www.underplot.com.
