@schwa i still fail to understand why this is needed, what's the problem it's solving in a better way?

@alejandrocrosa In a nut shell what it does for me is make a data “pipeline”…

@alejandrocrosa So you can have a chain of blocks that each process & transform the data…

@alejandrocrosa And it doesn’t matter if some of those blocks are sync or async. It “does the right thing"

@alejandrocrosa Chained async calls are traditionally “hard” without something like this… (esp. with good error handling…)

@schwa isn't that Futures?

@alejandrocrosa Yeah this kind of incorporates that too. Futures is just a portion of this approach though…

Where ReactiveCocoa is bloated, with several generations of out of date documentation, hot signals, cold signals, signal producers…
