How do you model values that vary over continuous time? Or deal with events which occur at finite points in time? In the Javascript world, the answer often involves using Functional Reactive Programming (FRP), with frameworks like RxJs, bacon.js and Flapjax providing elegant approaches to traditional event-driven programming. 

In Dart, Streams provide a consistent interface for working with repeating events. Streams are everywhere in Dart! 

In an important new article, Chris Buckett details ways in which you can subscribe to (and unsubscribe from) a Stream. He shows how to transform, validate and consume Stream data, and handle errors using a StreamSubscription.  This article demystifies the subject of Streams: read it if you want to know more about this important topic.
