Demystifying Multicasting
Multicasting refers to sharing the same Observable execution among multiple subscribers. This concept can be challenging to grasp initially, especially for those unfamiliar with reactive programming paradigms. However, it’s very useful and solves many problems in web applications.
In this chapter, I will demystify this concept, explaining when and where to use it, how RxJS subjects are involved, and its advantages.
So, in this chapter, we’re going to cover the following main topics:
- Explaining multicasting versus unicasting
- Exploring RxJS subjects
- Highlighting the advantages of multicasting
