Eseményértesítésekrl, or event notifications, are a fundamental concept in computing and software development. They represent a mechanism by which a program or system informs other parts of itself or external entities about something significant that has happened. This "event" could be anything from a user clicking a button, a sensor detecting a change, a file being modified, or a network connection being established.

The primary purpose of event notifications is to enable decoupling. Instead of components directly calling each other's functions, one component simply "broadcasts" an event. Other components that are interested in that specific event can then "listen" for it and react accordingly. This makes systems more flexible, modular, and easier to maintain, as components don't need to have explicit knowledge of all the other components they might affect.

Common implementations of event notification systems include observer patterns, publish-subscribe models, and event buses. In the observer pattern, objects register themselves as observers of a subject object. When the subject's state changes, it notifies all its registered observers. The publish-subscribe model is similar but often involves a central broker or message queue, where publishers send messages without knowing who the subscribers are, and subscribers receive messages they've expressed interest in. Event buses act as a central hub for all events, allowing any component to publish and any other component to subscribe to specific event types.

Event notifications are crucial for building responsive user interfaces, asynchronous processing, distributed systems, and handling real-time data streams. They allow for efficient communication and coordination between different parts of a software system without creating tight dependencies.
