Here is my attempt at a coding test, in which my task was to create a GitHub repository viewer. More details below.
I chose to keep it simple so I went with MVC design pattern for this project. After that, the next order of business was to find a way to get data from GitHub, so I looked at documentation to see if there is a url/route I could make a request to for data. I found /users/:username/repos which is exactly what I needed to make request with the owners name to fetch their repositories.
A repo owner may have multiple pages of content so upon digging I found the issue of pagination, which I would need to make use of a Link response header (All of this is in the GitHub API) to be able to retrieve any additional pages of a user's repo.
After loading the repo pages and data I was able to map the data into a data structure that would hold the language name (String) and hold an array of Repo structs (objects that would hold information like, name, description, language, stars/forks count etc...), this allowed me to easily split up a tableview into relevant sections.
I also added small design details such as a searchbar in the navigation bar, custom Xib for section header, activity indicator, custom app icon and I designed the table view cells with stack views to make the UI easier to work with and look good on all screen sizes.
