Implementing your presenter with RX for Android applications

It is pretty common to implement data layers with Rx: just glue some requests together with merge() or concat() and subscribe to the result. It is less common to implement presentation layers (presenters or view models) with Rx. And that is surprising, because a presentation layer is just the type of system Rx is designed for. It is an asynchronous processor — it receives asynchronous signals (user clicks, network responses, or system events), processes them, and emits asynchronous signals back (view updates mostly).
