What are the advantages of coroutines compared to RxJava?

Coroutines simplify asynchronous code, making it look like synchronous code, which improves readability and maintainability. They are integrated into Kotlin. They allow easy cancellation of work using structured concurrency.

RxJava offers more flexible and powerful functionality for complex stream transformations, but requires more boilerplate code and has a steep learning curve. It works on Java but is actively used in Kotlin. Managing lifecycle and cancellation requires more effort.
