+### RxJS Usage
+When dealing with RxJS operators it is important to be aware that using the "patch" imports will
+pollute the global Observable object (e.g. `import "rxjs/add/operator/map"`).  When creating a
+component library, it is highly recommended to import the operator functions directly (e.g.
+`import "rxjs/operator/map"`):
+
+```ts
+// NO
+import 'rxjs/add/operator/map';
+someObservable.map(...).subscribe(...);
+
+// YES
+import {map} from 'rxjs/operator/map';
+map.call(someObservable, ...).subscribe(...);
+```
+
+#### RxChain
+Because this approach can be inflexible when dealing with long chains of operators. You should use
+the `RxChain` class to help with it:
+
+```ts
+// Before
+someObservable.filter(...).map(...).do(...);
+
+// After
+RxChain.from(someObservable).call(filter, ...).call(map, ...).subscribe(...);
+```
