A number of people have been using React with RxJS as noted here: https://github.com/Reactive-Extensions/FutureJS . We also have native support in RxJS for jQuery/Zepto, Angular and Ember events natively (if of course they are referenced).

As the primary author of RxJS, I'm curious why you chose bacon.js over RxJS.

Anyhow, these architectures go well together!

Thanks for making RxJS!

> I'm curious why you chose bacon.js over RxJS

At the time I made the decision, Bacon had documentation and RxJS didn't (at least, not that I could find). I was new to FRP, so that made my decision for me -- I never went back and reconsidered.

Are you aware of any advantages RxJS has over Bacon? It looks a bit more extensive in general, so now I wonder what I'm missing out on :)
