Introduction In one of the previous posts, we saw how we can make a simple chat with ASP.NET Core SignalR. It takes about 5-10 mins for someone who is familiar with the environment and ASP.NET Core. Or even less.
RxJS - Part 6 - Chat application with RxJS
Introduction In the first post of RxJS series we talked about reactive programming and benefits or RxJS. Second post covered Observable and how we can effectively use and manipulate Observables.

Chat Application with Angular and Socket.IO
Introduction We will use RxJS, Angular, express (Node.js) & Socket.IO to make a chat application. We will get to see how useful RxJS can be in this scenario. For the purpose of making things smooth and easy we will be using Angular CLI to generate basic client structure and get us a boilerplate for simplest working Angular application. On the back-end we will use Node.js with express and Socket.IO. Reasoning behind this is that Socket.IO is very easy to set up and work with. Furthermore, it provides both server and client side libraries. Socket.IO primarily uses WebSocket protocol to enable real-time bidirectional communication.
