Reactive Programming is a programming paradigm centered on asynchronous data streams and the propagation of change, where systems react automatically to new data, events, or errors as they occur rather than through explicit polling. It's used by developers to build responsive, event-driven applications such as real-time dashboards, UI frameworks, and streaming data pipelines. Libraries like RxJS, Reactor, and Akka Streams implement this paradigm in various languages.
