Examples of Use Cases in Swift
In the last post we went over what use cases are in software development and how they can be used in iOS development. We also went over their origin as a requirements gathering technique for teams to document the functionality of the system they’re designing. In this post, I want to go over a few…

Camera for iOS – A Swift Package
Currently preparing a large post going over Clean Architecture in iOS and how that relates to modularization, but whilst that is in the making, I figured I’d post about my newly released Camera framework, and some of the architectural decisions made. Camera aims to provide a singular, well-tested interface for simple camera interactions. Its headless…

Feature Modularization in iOS
So you’ve decided a loosely coupled, highly cohesive, modular architecture with well defined boundaries, is the approach you want to take with your project. Now its time to go over how to deal with separating out the code. Today we’re going to go over an approach with feature modularization, using an example of an e-commerce…

Module Boundaries in iOS
We’ve talked about what modularization is, and what its advantages are when used in a decoupled, cohesive way. It feels only reasonable that we should dig into the meat of what a modular architecture could look like, starting with your module boundaries. I say “could” on purpose. Whilst I believe there are some anti-patterns to…

Advantages to modularization in iOS
We’ve already talked about what modularization is, and why a team might want to architect their codebase in such a way. But what are the real life advantages to having multiple units of code to work in? Lets take a look. Portable As touched on previously, modules that are loosely coupled to other modules in…
