dc.description.abstract	RxJS is a popular JavaScript library for reactive programming in Web applications. It provides numerous operators to create, combine, transform, and filter discrete events and to handle errors. These operators may be stateful and have side effects, which makes it difficult to understand the precise meaning of the resulting computation. In this paper, we define a formal model for RxJS programs by formalizing a selected subset of RxJS operators using a small-step operational semantics. We present several debugging related applications using the semantics as a model. We also implemented a subset of RxJS based on this semantics, which provides convenient access to the runtime representation of the RxJS program to help debugging.
