Codepath Week 3 project

Project 3 - Name of App Here

TwitterClient is a basic twitter app to read and compose tweets the Twitter API.

Time spent: 20 hours spent in total

User Stories

The following required functionality is completed:

• User can sign in using OAuth login flow.
• User can view last 20 tweets from their home timeline.
• The current signed in user will be persisted across restarts.
• In the home timeline, user can view tweet with the user profile picture, username, tweet text, and timestamp. In other words, design the custom cell with the proper Auto Layout settings. You will also need to augment the model classes.
• User can pull to refresh.
• User can compose a new tweet by tapping on a compose button.
• User can tap on a tweet to view it, with controls to retweet, favorite, and reply.
• Hamburger menu
  • Dragging anywhere in the view should reveal the menu.
  • The menu should include links to your profile, the home timeline, and the mentions view.
• Profile page
  • Contains the user header view (implemented as a custom view)
  • Contains a section with the users basic stats: # tweets, # following, # followers
• Home Timeline
  • Tapping on a user image should bring up that user's profile page

The following optional features are implemented:

• When composing, you should have a countdown in the upper right for the tweet limit.
• After creating a new tweet, a user should be able to view it in the timeline immediately without refetching the timeline from the network.
• Retweeting and favoriting should increment the retweet and favorite count.
• User should be able to unretweet and unfavorite and should decrement the retweet and favorite count.
• Replies should be prefixed with the username and the reply_id should be set when posting the tweet,
• User can load more tweets once they reach the bottom of the feed using infinite loading similar to the actual Twitter client.
• Pulling down the profile page should blur and resize the header image.
• Account switching
  • Long press on tab bar to bring up Account view with animation
  • Tap account to switch to
  • Include a plus button to Add an Account
  • Swipe to delete an account

The following additional features are implemented:

• List anything else that you can get done to improve the app functionality!

Notes

Describe any challenges encountered while building the app.

• To avoid actually creating new tweets/retweets/favorites while testing, I didn't implement the API code to post this data. It just prints out that you did something. I left some commented code suggesting what it might look like.
