iOS Challenge

A modern social media iOS application that demonstrates user authentication, post listing, and user profile management using Swift and UIKit.

Features

  • User authentication (login and guest mode)
  • Post listing with user information
  • User profile view with albums and photos
  • Modern UI with smooth animations
  • Comprehensive unit tests
  • Coordinator pattern for navigation
  • MVVM architecture

Requirements

  • iOS 18.0+
  • Xcode 16.0+
  • Swift 5.9+

Building and Running

  1. Open iOSChallenge.xcodeproj in Xcode
  2. Select your target device (simulator or physical device)
  3. Press ⌘R to build and run the application

Architecture Overview

The application follows MVVM architecture with Coordinator pattern for navigation. Here's a high-level overview of the main components and their interactions:

Key Components:

  • App Layer: Handles application lifecycle and initial setup
  • Presentation Layer: Manages UI and user interactions
    • ViewControllers: Handle UI presentation and user input
    • ViewModels: Manage business logic and data transformation
    • Coordinators: Handle navigation flow
  • Domain Layer: Contains core business logic
    • Models: Data structures and business entities
    • Protocols: Define interfaces and contracts
    • Services: Business logic services
  • Network Layer: Handles API communication
    • APIHelper: Network request handling
    • Endpoints: API endpoint definitions
    • Network Services: Specific API implementations

Testing

The project includes comprehensive unit tests for:

  • View Models
  • Services
  • Utilities
  • Coordinators

To run the tests:

  1. Open the project in Xcode
  2. Press ⌘U to run all tests

Architecture

The project follows the MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel) architecture pattern with the following components:

  • Models: Data structures
  • Views: UI components and user interaction
  • ViewModels: Business logic and data transformation
  • Coordinators: Navigation and flow management
  • Services: Network and utility services

Dependencies

  • No external dependencies required
