In this series of pages, I will discuss project reactor and reactive programming from basic concepts to reactor internal implementation details. This discussion is based on the official reference documentation, the java-doc, talks by maintainers of reactor e.g. at the spring I/O and other distributed material, and should summarise and connect all this information. It should complement the official reference documentation and java-doc. Although the name says "from zero to hero", basic knowledge about the library is advised to fully benefit from it.
As a short disclaimer, I am a professional software engineer with some years of experience in using reactor, but not a maintainer or creator of the library. Information and knowledge in this post are based on the official documentation and talks, but I cannot exclude misconceptions on my side.
