Streams and functional reactive programming are the future of all user interfaces. State management, asynchronous behaviour and user input all fall under this abstraction in a unified way.

The venerable master Qc Na was walking with his student, Anton. Hoping to prompt the master into a discussion, Anton said “Master, I have heard that objects are a very good thing – is this true?” Qc Na looked pityingly at his student and replied, “Foolish pupil – objects are merely a poor man’s closures.”

Closures are a poor man’s object.”
At that moment, Anton became enlightened.
