1) You skipped points one and two in my comment: a) Learn the foundations of RxJS. b) Understand how to extend RxJS by creating operators. Which lead to c) read RxJS’s code to understand how it implements operators to better learn to implement your own.

2) RxJS is not Git. It’s a library designed to be extended by users. To use RxJS you need to write code with it. Git is not exclusively a library and doesn’t require you to write you own extensions to use it day to day.

As a casual Git user you wouldn’t get much out of implementing a DVCS but you would benefit from learning to host your own repo instead of relying on GitHub.

If someone was struggling to use Git I’d tell them to learn the foundations, practice them, and then to host their own repos to continue learning.

The same basic track I recommended for RxJS.

A big moment for RxJS users is when they realize that they need an operator or observable that doesn’t exist. It’s really fun to write your own.
