(suggestion) Illustrations in docs

[MatthewTrout]

I find these docs a great resource and a good point of reference when working with rxjs, and I find them almost always sufficient to keep me on the right path without having to refer to the official docs.

However one thing which I feel is missing which I find to be exceptionally useful when referencing operators, is the illustrations which demonstrate the nature of the emission according to the operator. Taking merge as an example, when paired with the image from the official docs:

For those who learn better with visual cues, this could be invaluable...

I'm unsure how this would need to be considered in terms of licensing etc?

I think following the trail from this issue might be a good starting point at not only adding the diagrams, but making them interactive. I agree that visual representation of RX operators is invaluable.

Hello, thanks for bringing this up. I agree visual cues are great, and marble diagrams can be very helpful. I’m a bit constrained by what I can do using GitBook, but let me see if there is a way I can get interactive marbles into at least some of these examples. I’ll keep you updated!

@btroncone happy to help out if I can
