  • Kaleidoscope of iOS app architectures

    TCA for short. Very scalable, quite promising, quite popular. A decent alternative for MVVM enhanced by the Clean Architecture. You can learn more about it in a Point-Free tutorial and on GitHub.
  • Koji je vas odnos prema alternativnim hype-ovanim paradimama programiranja, frameworcima i tehnologijama?
    2 projects | /r/programiranje | 14 Jun 2023
    Razliciti alternativni frameworci i arhitekture - Recimo, na pamet mi padaju Composable Architecture (https://github.com/pointfreeco/swift-composable-architecture) i RIBs arhitektura (https://github.com/uber/RIBs). Ok, ove arhitekture resavaju neke probleme. Ali da li problemi koje te arhitekture resavaju solidan developer ne moze sam da resi bez vendor locka za kreatore tih arhitektura. Jesu one open-source, ali meni je rizik da se vezujem za bilo sta sto sutra moze da prestane da se odrzava.

    At a minimum, Composable Architecture, and now Dependencies from Point-Free.

  • What SwiftUI architecture are you all using?

    I’m fairly exclusive to https://github.com/pointfreeco/swift-composable-architecture. There is a learning curve to get started but I really enjoy working with it.

    Look into some of the architectural patterns out there, find one that makes sense to you, and use that to build your app. For example, check out the Composable Architecture, Clean Architecture, VIPER, MVVM.

    If you're interested in SwiftUI and care about feature composability, decent test coverage, dependency injection, isolated side effects, functional core and being able to use live previews properly, take a look at: https://github.com/pointfreeco/swift-composable-architecture

    Been using it at work for a moderately complex app (not a toy app by any means) and it's been fantastic. We're 7 months in and haven't hit any gotchas, but the learning curve can be a bit steep, especially for more junior iOS devs.

    Helps that they have a full video series taking you through the library and how they built it: https://www.pointfree.co/collections/composable-architecture
