Learn Http, Jwt and Rxjs

When a manager gives us the requirements for an application feature, they don't care too much about *how* we build it. And often times, they think that hard things will be easy.

Dealing with time and coordinating different types of events can be tricky.

Luckily, we have RxJS to help!

In this course, you will use RxJS to build a loading spinner in an app that meets the ever-changing requirements from a mock Product Manager.

You'll also learn how to implement a "Konami Code" style feature that listens for a correct sequence of keys to be typed in a set amount of time.

Follow the thought process that Rares uses as he breaks problems down into manageable pieces that remain flexible, and become more comfortable solving problems reactively.

RxJS is a library for composing asynchronous and event-based programs by using observable sequences.

This playlist will be a smorgasbord of Auth0 authentication and authorization topics. Everything from adding Auth0 to various apps, customizing your Auth0 settings, adding specific rules / audiences / features, and debugging errors. 

JavaScript® (often shortened to JS) is a lightweight, interpreted, object-oriented language with first-class functions, most known as the scripting language for Web pages, but used in many non-browser environments as well such as node.js or Apache CouchDB. It is a prototype-based, multi-paradigm scripting language that is dynamic, and supports object-oriented, imperative, and functional programming styles.

Auth0 Tips and Tricks 

_Feels like magic._

It’s a beautiful feeling when technology works in mysterious, miraculous ways. So smooth! So effortless! So…

_Wait, that’s not right. What’s it doing? I don’t get it. Help!_

…until you encounter unexpected behavior. Good luck debugging magic.

To use technology to its fullest, you need to understand how it’s accomplishing the tasks set before it. 

This course de-mystifies RxJS. It feels like magic, but it’s also one of the most laborious technologies to learn in front-end web development. We’ll open up the internals to take an up-close look at how RxJS handles Async programming so smoothly.

Over 12 lessons and 31 minutes, you'll get a handle on:

- how RxJS pushes values from observables to subscribers, which take care of the output. 
- how operators handle all of the "in-between" operations where you can manipulate the values while they're still in-flight.
- the internals of operators and subscribers and how to customize operators to your specific needs.


Build Your Own RxJS Pipeable Operators

***Note: RxJS imports have changed since the publication of this course, these changes to RxJS have been reflected in the code examples underneath each lesson. The concepts being taught on RxJS are still applicable.***

Vue.js is an amazing framework that can easily update and reflect user input using templates and data-binding. But there are many scenarios where complex asynchronous behaviors (like loading data, handling "pending" states, timeouts, etc) are solved much easier by leveraging the streaming capabilities of RxJS. This course covers how to setup and use the features of "vue-rx" to enable streams within your templates and easily solve complex scenarios.

Vue (pronounced /vjuː/, like view) is a progressive framework for building user interfaces. Unlike other monolithic frameworks, Vue is designed from the ground up to be incrementally adoptable. The core library is focused on the view layer only, and is very easy to pick up and integrate with other libraries or existing projects. On the other hand, Vue is also perfectly capable of powering sophisticated Single-Page Applications when used in combination with modern tooling and supporting libraries.

***Note: Active maintenance for Recompose has been discontinued since the announcement for React hooks. Your existing code using Recompose will still work. Recompose is not compatible with RxJS version 6 and beyond. You can read more about the decision [here.](https://github.com/acdlite/recompose/issues/756#issuecomment-438674573)*** 


Loading data and handling events almost always introduces layers of complexity into React apps. Recompose and RxJS solve your async problems by using Streams to output components. This course walks you through combining the powers of React and RxJS to stream data into JSX with streaming patterns and pure React components.

React is one of the web’s most popular frameworks for building JavaScript applications. 

If you know what you’re doing, React can drastically simplify how you build, use, and maintain code.

Whether you’re a React newbie or you’re ready for advanced techniques, you can level-up with egghead. Explore our in-depth courses, lessons, and community resources to build more powerful applications and crack open your career.

JSON Web Token (JWT) is a low overhead option for authentication that is easy to implement and scales with your application. There is no need to store session data as everything you need is stored in an encoded string sent in the JWT, significantly reducing database overhead for your servers.

In this course, we will build a simple authentication server that will act as a token issuer, and we will use those tokens to access resources on an API.  Starting from scratch, you will learn how easy token based authentication can be and will understand how to use them on your APIs as well as on the front end of your web applications.

Express is a minimal and flexible Node.js web application framework that provides a robust set of features for web and mobile applications.

Introductions to various RxJS Operators including of, from, fromEvent, interval and zip.

RxJS Operators

***Note: RxJS imports have changed since the publication of this course. Operators now must be passed into `.pipe` to be applied to an observable.***

In this course we will begin with nothing more than an empty directory & a text editor. Through small, focussed lessons we’ll learn how to setup a React project that uses Redux for state management and redux-observable for asynchronous actions. We’ll see how ‘epics’ are registered and how they each receive a ‘stream’ of actions from the store. 

With an understanding of how things work, we’ll move onto solving common problems such as Ajax cancellation, creating sequences of async actions, enabling code reuse through higher-order Observables and much more.

In this course we will learn to identify common mistakes with RxJS that usually make code harder to read and even introduce bugs. Most of these mistakes are related to Subject, subscribe, and subscriptions. We are going to see how to use only Observables and convenient operators made for solving those mistakes, such as fromEvent, takeUntil and switchMap. By the end of this course, you will have a more immediate intuition on what patterns are simple and safe in RxJS.

Save time avoiding common mistakes using RxJS

If you have used RxJS Observables, it is likely you have seen the flatMap or switchMap operators. They are very powerful operators that can be used in various situations, while being common for dealing with HTTP requests. These operators may look mysterious at first, but turn out to be simple flattening operations on higher order Observables. 

In this course you will learn what is a higher order Observable, when does it occur in real applications, and how to handle them with operators like switchMap. Throughout this course we will see real applications of these operations.

Start following this course if you have some understanding of RxJS, but want to gain advanced skills in the art of using operators.

If you're new to RxJS, we highly recommend the [Introduction to Reactive Programming using RxJS](https://egghead.io/courses/introduction-to-reactive-programming) to begin with, and then [RxJS Beyond the Basics: Operators in Depth](https://egghead.io/courses/rxjs-beyond-the-basics-operators-in-depth) to understand operators.

If you're an absolute beginner to the concept of Observable and async streams, we highly recommend starting with [Jafar Husain's excellent introduction](https://egghead.io/courses/mastering-asynchronous-programming-the-end-of-the-loop).

Use Higher Order Observables in RxJS Effectively

RxJS Subjects are a source of confusion for many people using RxJS. For many, the Subject is the obvious and only answer to every problem. Subjects are incredibly useful and necessary, but the key is to know when to use them for solving specific problems that you encounter.

In this course, we are going deep into RxJS Subjects and multicasting operators. You'll gain a solid understanding of when, where, and how to use these powerful tools.

If you are new to RxJS, or want a refresher please check out this course **[Introduction to Reactive Programming](https://egghead.io/courses/introduction-to-reactive-programming)**.

RxJS Subjects and Multicasting Operators

In this course, we will learn the fundamentals of the Hypertext Transport Protocol (HTTP) by exploring several popular HTTP APIs such as the GitHub API. Starting with the basic structure of an HTTP request and response, we will then delve into the specifics of each element of the request/response messages. Using concrete examples from these APIs, we will cover request methods, response status codes, messages headers, and message bodies. Along the way, you'll learn about specific message headers, such as `Cache-Control`, and `Cookie`  and how they control the behavior of clients/browsers and HTTP API services.

This course uses HTTPie, if you would like to follow along with the instructor you can download the client [here](https://httpie.org/).

The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is an application-level protocol for distributed, collaborative, hypermedia information systems. It is a generic, stateless, protocol which can be used for many tasks beyond its use for hypertext, such as name servers and distributed object management systems, through extension of its request methods, error codes and headers.

In this course, you will learn more about using observables in Angular. We are going to how we can leverage the power of observables and RxJS to build a rock solid instant search component with a handful of operators.

You will learn operators by applying them to a real-world component. By the end of this course, you will have a clear understanding of how components can be designed around the concept of event streams which are wired together like modular building blocks.

All of this in about 11 minutes! 😄

This course assumes a solid understanding of fundamentals.

Operators are the core building blocks for reacting to data in your JavaScript applications.

In this course you will learn what operators are, and then take a tour of the most useful operators that RxJS has to offer.

RxJS Beyond the Basics: Operators in Depth

There are plenty of introductions to RxJS, but few resources that take you deep into the library, providing an accurate understand of what each piece performs.

In this course we will gain intermediate knowledge of RxJS, focusing on one aspect: how to create Observables. We will see how Observables compare to functions, how they compare to ES6 generators, what are the empty(), throw() and never() Observables, and other static factories that help in making Observable sequences.

Start following this course if you have a superficial understanding of RxJS, but want to gain confidence in using it.

*Reactive*

You've probably been hearing this word recently, and it's referring to the *Reactive Programming* paradigm. One of the biggest challenges people face when learning Reactive Programming is changing their way of thinking, and in this course, you are going to exercise your mind and learn to let go of that imperative and stateful mindset.

You will also learn how can practically apply these Reactive concepts using the RxJS library!

Introduction to Reactive Programming Using RxJS 5

RxJS is tremendously helpful in working with asynchronous code, but you’ve probably been stuck trying to use concepts you already know from Promises or Callbacks and applying them directly to RxJS. These lessons walk you through the step-by-step of building a simple game application with many asynchronous pieces. Each lesson focuses on a single operator or idea of how RxJS helps simplify your code as well as making you code flexible enough to easily add more asynchronous pieces as your codebase grows.

Step-by-Step Async JavaScript with RxJS

Build Redux Style Applications with Angular, RxJS, and ngrx/store

***Note: Some of the RxJS syntax used in this course is outdated, but the concepts taught on arrays, async, and observables are still reliable and applicable.***

Async programming may seem daunting. How can we write programs that accept user input, run animations, and send server requests over the same period? How do we keep the code clear and concise? How do we gracefully propagate and handle asynchronous errors? How can we avoid memory leaks caused by dangling event handlers? JavaScript's loops and try/catch keywords are no help - they only work on synchronous functions.

Here's the good news: Asynchronous programming is much easier than it seems. The key is to think differently about events. It is possible to build most asynchronous programs using a handful of simple functions. We will learn why most JavaScript developers approach asynchronous programming the wrong way, and how to avoid these common mistakes. 

Asynchronous Programming: The End of The Loop

JSON Web Tokens (JWT) are a more modern approach to authentication. As the web moves to a greater separation between the client and server, JWT provides a terrific alternative to traditional cookie based authentication models. For more information on JWT visit http://jwt.io/

In this series, we’ll be building a simple application to get random user information from a node server with an Angular client. We’ll then implement JWT to protect the random user resource on the server and then work through the frontend to get JWT authentication working.

By the end, we’ll have an application which has a single username/password combination (for simplicity) and uses tokens to authorize the client to see the random user information. You’ll be able to login, get random users, and logout.

AngularJS is an open-source JavaScript framework, maintained by Google, that assists with running single-page applications. Its goal is to augment web-based applications with model–view–controller (MVC) capability, in an effort to make both development and testing easier.

As developers, we're often working closely with APIs to make requests in the browser or on the backend with a server, but we might not always know exactly how those requests work or how they should look.

Postman is a tool that lets us create, manage, and test API endpoints all within a UI so we can wrangle our APIs and understand how they work.
