The Reactive Extensions for .NET (Rx.NET) is a family of libraries providing composable, declarative event-driven programming via observable streams and LINQ-style operators. It includes System.Reactive, the experimental AsyncRx.NET, the Interactive Extensions (Ix), and System.Linq.Async for IAsyncEnumerable.

Use cases

  • process real-time event streams in .NET
  • compose asynchronous data streams with LINQ operators
  • handle UI events reactively
  • build cloud-native stream processing pipelines
  • simplify concurrency and threading with schedulers
  • apply LINQ operators to IAsyncEnumerable

When to choose

  • you need composable event-driven or stream-based programming in .NET
  • you want declarative handling of async data with rich operators
  • you need robust async error handling and scheduler-based concurrency control

When to avoid

  • your project uses a non-.NET language (consider RxJava or RxJS instead)
  • you need only simple async/await patterns without event streams
  • you require a stable async-native Rx implementation (AsyncRx.NET is still experimental)
