Download or read book Beginning Reactive Programming with Swift written by Jesse Feiler and published by Apress. This book was released on 2018-09-10 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn the basics of reactive programming and how it makes apps more responsive. This book shows you how to incorporate reactive programming into existing development products and cycles using RXSwift and RXCocoa on iOS and Mac. As we move away from the traditional paradigm of typing or touching one step at a time to interact with programs, users expect apps to adapt and not need constant hand-holding. People today expect their devices to do much more than just follow commands. They expect devices to react and adapt. Reactive programming, a new term for asynchronous processing, requires new app architectures, and you'll learn how these are already built into iOS and macOS in many places. As part of this more complex environment, you'll move beyond Cocoa and Cocoa Touch to incorporate data from Amazon Web Services (AWS), JavaScript Object Notation (JSON), and other formats, and standards. Together with the concepts of reactive programming and RxSwift, these tools help you build more powerful and useful apps that have wide appeal and use. What You'll Learn Work with tools such as Darwin microkernel, RxSwift, and RxCocoa Use Git repositiories and other resoucrces to get into coding Create apps that adapt to gestures and UI interaction as well as what's happening in and around the environment of the app itself. Who This Book Is For This book is for Swift programmers interested in learning to create reactive apps with RxSwift.

Download or read book App Architecture written by Chris Eidhof and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-05-13 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains a range of application design patterns and their implementation techniques using a single example app, fully implemented in five design patterns. Instead of advocating for any particular pattern, we lay out the problems all architectures are trying to address: constructing the app's components, communicating between the view and the model, and handling non-model state. We show high-level solutions to these problems and break them down to the level of implementation for five different design patterns - two commonly used and three more experimental.The common architectures are Model-View-Controller and Model-View-ViewModel + Coordinator. In addition to explaining these patterns conceptually and on the implementation level, we discuss solutions to commonly encountered problems, like massive view controllers. On the experimental side we explain View-State-Driven Model-View-Controller, ModelAdapter-ViewBinder, and The Elm Architecture. By examining these experimental patterns, we extract valuable lessons that can be applied to other patterns and to existing code bases.

Download or read book Mastering MVVM with Swift Updated for Xcode 9 and Swift 4 written by Bart Bart Jacobs and published by . This book was released on 2017-07-17 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I don't feel in control of my project's architecture." - You"MVC simply doesn't cut it. There must be a better solution." - Yours TrulyDespite its widespread, the Model-View-Controller pattern just doesn't cut it for most Swift projects. Take control of your Swift projects with the Model-View-ViewModel pattern.Massive View Controller SyndromeFiring up Xcode and starting a new project is a great feeling. The first few days or weeks don't feel like work. Everything goes according to plan.But as the code base of your project grows, it becomes harder and harder to manage the project. The view controllers of your project start to put on weight ... a lot of weight. They become more than view controllers. They take on responsibilities they didn't sign up for. Don't they?Yet you've done everything right. You've stuck to the rules of the Model-View-Controller pattern. Why have you coded yourself in a corner? And why is it frustrating or downright scary to add features or refactor existing functionality?It's Time to Cure MVCIf your project is suffering from Massive View Controller syndrome, then the Model-View-ViewModel pattern is the cure to your problem. The Model-View-ViewModel pattern has been around for many, many years, but it only recently gained traction in the Cocoa community.MVVM extends MVC by resolving common issues. The result is a robust application architecture with lean view controllers, improved testability, and a better separation of concerns. How does that sound?Take Control of Your Project With MVVMIn Mastering MVVM With Swift, we refactor an existing application built with MVC to use MVVM instead. The results are dramatic and the MVVM pattern is surprisingly easy to adopt in your own projects.You learn the differences between Model-View-Controller and Model-View-ViewModel, highlighting the benefits Model-View-ViewModel has over Model-View-Controller.After a short introduction, we take an application built with Model-View-Controller and refactor it to use Model-View-ViewModel instead. Along the way, you learn about the anatomy of view models, how to create them, and how to test them.Last but not least, we add protocols and protocol-oriented programming to the mix to further simplify the view controllers in the project.At the end of this course, you have the knowledge and, more importantly, the hands-on experience to apply Model-View-ViewModel in your own projects.Ready for Xcode 9 and Swift 4In Mastering MVVM With Swift, you learn everything you need to know to integrate MVVM in a new or an existing Swift project. We focus on the key aspects of the pattern and refactor an application that takes advantage of the core features of MVVM. We use the latest and greatest to build an application, which means we use Xcode 9 and Swift 4.Battling Massive View Controller SyndromeAre the view controllers of your projects suffering from Massive View Controller syndrome? You've carefully crafted the architecture of your application using the Model-View-Controller pattern and, yet, the view controllers of your project are ready to burst and they're impossible to test.Adding a feature forces you to wade through hundreds of lines of code. You hope you don't break anything while you carefully add a few lines of code. Don't get me wrong. Your code isn't bad. But there's just so much of it. You've applied the Model-View-Controller pattern like you were told to and you still end up with an architecture you aren't quite happy with. Does this sound familiar?It's Not You. It's MVC.Because Apple's frameworks are impregnated with the Model-View-Controller pattern we think it's the right or only tool for the job. Don't make the same mistake. There's nothing wrong with the Model-View-Controller pattern, but there are better alternatives, especially if you're using Swift.
