Remember the Observable proposal?

• tengbretson 3y ago
  The Observable proposal made a stronger case in my opinion, since Observables provide an interface that is functionally unique and useful for the boundaries between app logic and libraries, so a single standard approach has benefits. Signals on the other hand live right where application state binds to the ui. Is this really somewhere that people are patching together a hodge podge of libraries that need to use a consistent api? I'm not so sure.

    Signals are used in every framework except React. Observables weren't. That's a huge difference.

  There's the old one that fizzled out: https://github.com/tc39/proposal-observable https://github.com/tc39/proposal-observable And there's the new one which seems to be getting implemented in node right now: https://github.com/WICG/observable https://github.com/WICG/observable
