Introduction to Akka.NET Streams

[@keja0]

Superb presentation, thank you.

[@eugenehlushin1746]

it's great!

[@LeviRamsey]

Wondering if there's a reason to not do what Akka JVM did with 2.6 and just allow the ActorSystem to be used as the materializer, rather than requiring the materializer to be manually extracted.

[@Stannardian]

Yes, we should make that change too.

[@Petabridge]

As of Akka.NET v1.5, we now do this!

What are the advantages of using Akka Streams over the other Reactive extension library, I think it is called System.Reactive?

[@ilyatchivilev5151]

1 year late to reply to this, but System.Reactive is about building flows that are declarative ways of handling events. It does not offer an easy way of modelling backpressure, it's "reactive".
