Feature Request

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

When using Angular the prescribed method, which I also prefer to use, to handle HTTP request is using RxJS observables instead of promises. Moreover, in my personal inexperienced opinion, the use of promises is harder to reason about and almost archaic compared to the use of observables, even outside of Angular. As such, I find myself actually avoiding this library.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like there to be an official JS/TS Graph SDK library that utilizes RxJS observables. As for whether it supersedes this existing library or becomes a new separate one, I have no preference.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I have considered simply conceding to using this library, since there might be very good technical reasons as for why promises are used, or rather observables aren't used, that I may not fully comprehend yet, but then I thought making a suggestion couldn't hurt.

Additional context

I am unsure whether this even is the correct place to suggest such a thing, but it seemed the most appropriate to me. I also couldn't find any similar suggestions, so I hope this isn't like the 1000th time someone annoys you with this.
