Using RX with yeoman generator

I want to use RXJS with typescript yeoman generator, according to the docs inquirer which is the engine under yeoman support RXJS

https://github.com/SBoudrias/Inquirer.js/#reactive-interface

I use the following 

export default class myGenerator extends Generator {

...

  async prompting() {
    const prompts = new Subject<Generator.Question>();
    await this.prompt(prompts);

    prompts.next({
      name: "appName",
      message: "app name: ",
      type: "input",
      default: this.props!.appName,
      validate(input: string) {
        const appName = validateAppName(input);
        return !appName[1] ? appName[0] : true;
      },
    });
    prompts.next({
      type: "list",
      name: "tech",
      message: "Which type",
      default: "CLI",
      choices: [{ name: "CLI" }, { name: "CloudApp" }],
    });



   
    prompts.complete();
}

Now while running it I got error :

events.js:170
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

Im not sure where to put the name as all the prompts are providing the name property. , any idea ?

What I need is to create just two simple questions which will work with RXJS How I can do that ?
