Saga vs Observables

// Redux-Saga

import axios from 'axios' 

function* watchSaga(){
  yield takeEvery('fetch_user', fetchUser) // waiting for action (fetch_user)
}

function* fetchUser(action){
    try {
        yield put({type:'fetch_user_ing'})
        const response = yield call(axios.get,'/api/users/1')
        yield put({type:'fetch_user_done',user:response.data})
  } catch (error) {
        yield put({type:'fetch_user_error',error})
  }
}

// Redux-Observable
import axios from 'axios'

const fetchUserEpic = action$ => 
    action$
        .ofType('fetch_user')
        .flatMap(()=>
          Observable.from(axios.get('/api/users/1')) // or use Observable.ajax
            .map(response=>({type:'fetch_user_done', user:response.data}))
            .catch(error => Observable.of({type:'fetch_user_error',error}))
            .startWith({type:'fetch_user_ing'})
        )
