Button should not have any behavior, it should generate an event. Your app can have one or multiple listeners for this event. This pattern is battle-tested for decades.

OK, but the response to that event should be localized to the button.

Of course :) Have you tried to find something before asking?

1.) Don't be a jackass.

2.) I know what reactive programming is, I make extensive use of RxJS at work. And I obviously know what an event listener is. I was asking why is it wrong to have the button have functionality and only emit events. And I did google that, but nothing from your comment you posted that I googled lead to anything about reactive programming.
