How to use it?

If you need to get a text change events of EditText widget, simple use case with cold Flow will look something like this:

findViewById<EditText>(R.id.et_name)
    .textChanges() // Flow<CharSequence>
    .onEach { /* handle text change events */ }
    .launchIn(scope)

If you prefer hot ReceiveChannel and you need to get a ViewPager page selection events, then the use case will transform in something like this:

launch {
    findViewById<ViewPager>(R.id.vp_slides)
        .pageSelections(scope) // ReceiveChannel<Int>
        .consumeEach {
            /* handle ViewPager events */
        }
}

And if you just need to perform an action on button click, the easiest way will be:

launch {
    findViewById<AppCompatButton>(R.id.bt_confirm)
        .clicks {
            /* perform an action on View click events */
        }
}

Just one more traditional example of login button enabling/disabling by email and password field validation:

combine(
    et_email.textChanges()
        .map { Patterns.EMAIL_ADDRESS.matcher(it).matches() },

    et_password.textChanges()
        .map { it.length > 7 },

    transform = { email, password -> email && password }
) 
    .onEach { bt_login.isEnabled = it }
    .launchIn(scope)
