Chapter 6: Reactive Programming with Manifold

In this section

• 6.2 Getting Started with Manifold
  • Deferred Values and Promises in Manifold: Asynchronous Programming in Clojure
    Explore the power of deferred values and promises in Manifold for handling asynchronous programming in Clojure. Learn how to create, chain, and manage errors with deferreds, and understand their comparison with core.async channels.
  • Streams and Transformations in Clojure's Manifold: Harnessing Asynchronous Data Flows
    Explore the power of streams and transformations in Clojure's Manifold library for managing asynchronous data flows. Learn how to create, process, and transform streams efficiently, and understand the importance of backpressure in maintaining system stability.
• 6.3 Integration with Web Applications
  • Handling Asynchronous Requests with Manifold in Clojure
    Explore the integration of Manifold with web servers like Aleph and Pedestal for handling asynchronous requests in Clojure, leveraging deferreds for non-blocking operations.
  • Combining Manifold with core.async for Enhanced Asynchronous Programming in Clojure
    Explore the synergy between Manifold and core.async in Clojure for building robust asynchronous applications. Learn how to bridge these powerful libraries, convert between deferreds and channels, and implement practical use cases.
• Understanding Reactive Programming Concepts: A Deep Dive into the Reactive Paradigm
  Explore the principles of reactive programming, focusing on responsiveness, resiliency, elasticity, and message-driven architecture. Learn about event streams, backpressure mechanisms, and real-world use cases.
• Building High-Throughput Systems with Clojure and Manifold
  Explore techniques for building high-throughput systems using Clojure and Manifold, focusing on scalability, resource management, load balancing, and benchmarking.
• Debugging and Testing Reactive Code: Mastering Asynchronous Challenges in Clojure
