I’m working on a React application where I need to debounce a search input field. The search field sends a query to an API as the user types, but I want to limit the number of requests by waiting until the user has stopped typing for a brief moment. I’ve tried using setTimeout and clearTimeout inside the onChange handler, but I’m still experiencing issues with rapid API calls.

I’m trying out react.js with rxjs. I have build a simple Game Of Life implementation with the option to “bomb” the elements. If I subscribe to my state Observable in the React component, nothing happens. If I additionally subscribe in the data store, the whole thing starts to move.

I’m trying to send a JSON payload, getting from my an api, from index.js to a component with rxjs Subject. But in the component, I cannot access the values. Thank you for your hints.
