Building an awesome user interface is hard work. You've got the complexities of real life to deal with - handling user inputs, dealing with slow network connections and managing background workers. There's also this testing thing that people keep going on about!

We need a way of handling the real world, whilst behaving in a predictable and responsive manner. Enter ReactiveUI, a fusion of MVVM and the Reactive Extensions (Rx) for .NET applications.

In this session I'll introduce ReactiveUI, show you some tips and tricks, discuss the benefits and tradeoffs of the framework and show how it can be used as a solid foundation for building cross-platform .NET applications.
