Thanks for those examples. The kickstarter app is opensourced and seems to be a good example of the MVVM pattern - https://github.com/kickstarter/ios-oss/tree/master/Kickstart... Ive been out of the iOS game for about two years and now getting back into it. Have you had luck convincing your organization to use SwiftUI? What have been the painpoints? I am finding that people on my team are pretty traditional, even hesitating to use autolayout, so pushing SwiftUI might be an uphill battle.

Came here to post this. It's got some interesting usage of custom Swift operators to create almost diagrammatic code, like here: https://github.com/kickstarter/ios-oss/blob/master/Kickstart... _ = self.cardholderNameTextField |> formFieldStyle |> cardholderNameTextFieldStyle |> \.accessibilityLabel .~ self.cardholderNameLabel.text And it's the first iOS codebase I've seen that puts test files right next to the files that define the things being tested. It's all there together. Tons of other goodies to find.

I’m only learning Swift and iOS dev but a fair amount of people recommended me to take a deeper look into Kickstarter for iOS app: https://github.com/kickstarter/ios-oss

Kickstarter uses “Swift Playgrounds for iterative development and styling. Most major screens in the app get a corresponding playground where we can see a wide variety of devices, languages and data in real time.” (The Kickstarter iOS app is open-source [0]; see their playgrounds [1].) Here’s [2] Brandon Williams’ talk Finding Happiness in Functional Programming (starts at “Playground-Driven Development,” but I suggest watching the whole talk), [3] the Swift Talk episode “Playground-Driven Development” (Brandon Williams and Chris Eidhof), and [4] the Swift Talk episode “Test-Driven Reactive Programming” (Lisa Luo and Chris) wherein they build a small but complete PoC all within Playgrounds. There are many more examples, such as Chris Lattner’s own Dynamic Member Lookup proposal [5] Python Interop playground [6] and Reactive Swift’s gettin

For iOS engineers, I'd recommend reading over the Kickstarter iOS application (https://github.com/kickstarter/ios-oss). They use a lot of interesting stuff, like FRP, lenses, etc.

The kickstarter app is open source and has amazing code quality: https://github.com/kickstarter/ios-oss

> Download the Xcode 7.3.1 release. The app requires a different version. https://github.com/kickstarter/ios-oss/blob/master/README.md I concede. There are issues getting the dev environment configured.

They use Swift Playgrounds to do a lot of development: "Swift Playgrounds for iterative development and styling. Most major screens in the app get a corresponding playground where we can see a wide variety of devices, languages, and data in real time." https://github.com/kickstarter/ios-oss/tree/master/Kickstart... I've recently bought into this development method too. It's not quite what Bret Victor dreamed up, but it's a big step in the right direction.
