Mobile ❤ async

← All notes

Async is more natural in a lot of cases on a mobile device. Why waste valuable battery life polling for updates if you can react on events pushed to you.

Asynchronous and reactive methodologies allow you to better utilize system resources. Instead of wasting a thread waiting for network (or disk) IO, it can be fully utilized to perform other work instead.
