The do() operator allows us to perform side effects in the chain of operators. However, there are limited use cases for do(). We will learn what those use cases are and how to use subscribe() most of the times.

Also, I have had the case where I wanted a required side effect to occur but only when there was a subscriber for the "main" observable. I suppose the "correct" way to enforce that would be to expose an observable that is the result of merge ?

Julia, I do think you are right about triggering twice regarding click observable. It would be one hit as click is hot observable.

what about the situations when we use the async pipe in Angular? the subscription and unsubscription happens automatically in the template, so we can't have subscribe
