The answer to this question may surprise you: they are both collections. This key insight holds the key to dramatically simplifying asynchronous programming in Javascript. In this tutorial you will learn how you can use the familiar Javascript Array methods to create surprisingly expressive asynchronous programs.

Some of these frameworks suffered from performance issues with two way data binding, data loading and so forth. Along came React, getting rid of the two way data binding, and bringing a new way of thinking of how we design web apps. Let’s take some of those lessons, with immutability, unidirectional data flow, and reactive programming to create new architectures such as those seen in Cycle.js, Yolk.js and even React with RxJS and let your mind run free on these new ideas.
