RxBinding or RxAndroid

I do not have very clear these two concepts, as they relate RxBinding and RxAndroid.

RxBinding is used for the view, can I use RxAndroid without using RxBinding?

Solution

  • RxBinding:

    RxJava binding APIs for Android UI widgets from the platform and support libraries.

    RxAndroid:

    Reactive Extensions for Android.

    Android specific bindings for RxJava 2.

    This module adds the minimum classes to RxJava that make writing reactive components in Android applications easy and hassle-free. More specifically, it provides a Scheduler that schedules on the main thread or any given Looper.

    Don't get confused by the binding word in the Android specific bindings for RxJava 2 .

    And the answer is YES . You can use RxAndroid without the RxBinding library. They are not related.
