Özelden de konuştuk ama buraya da yazayım, fikir olarak dursun.Bu örnek üzerinden gelmeye çalıştığın noktayı anlıyorum ancak eğitim kalitesi ile eğitim kapsamı farklı konular. Nicelikten önce nitelik, evet. Fakat yazılımın dünyayı domine...

Hey Marton. Thanks for taking time to write this. It’s a bit hard to understand these things without a diagram or code but what you’re using sounds ok. I always strive for UI and domain logic separation and UIKit agnostic logic components...

Hey Ali! The concept “push” belongs to UI layer so view model shouldn’t be responsible from triggering it, IMHO. MVVM has different implementations but I always design my view models to be UI agnostic so that they can be reused by...

Thanks Jimmy! Yeah, NotificationCenter feels like it’s the only way after some time. :) Habits die hard. I agree with you about Law of Demeter. It’s up to API user to hide it under a method call or not. Might be handy if you plan to change...

Hi Maciek. Glad you liked the post. :) Those are valid points. My approach is to provide convenience initializers for App target as well, but in separate file. It just feels more tidy and correct this way. One file to define the class and...

This is gold, thanks! Just what I needed.

Hi Feras. Glad you liked the post. :)Extensions add methods to an existing class so that’s still Massive-View-Controller but in a more organized way. Think about A/B testing in your example. If you have 2 different view controllers for the...

I recently started structuring projects like this as well. But I’m using a single project with different targets. Do you see an advantage of using projects instead of targets?

Understanding architectures to the core…Bahá’í Temple of South AmericaIn the last two years, I’ve had chances to experiment with architectures like MVC, MVVM and VIPER. What’s common among those is the V component, which represents the...

This is a hard problem in any language. When we are interacting with APIs, we are constantly making requests on objects. Let’s say we have an object x. If we say x.doSomething(), this will create a new state on this object. We can only...
