Mastering the Subject: Communication Options in RxJS
summary
Explains concrete RxJS choices and tradeoffs: plain Subject sends values only after subscribe, BehaviorSubject returns last value on subscribe, ReplaySubject replays N past values, AsyncSubject emits only the final value on completion. Shows a live timer demo that emits numbers and demonstrates each subject working as described. Demonstrates two patterns — an event bus for loosely coupled messaging and an observable service backed by a small Observable Store — and shows the patterns functioning in real code.
