Online/offline demo app.

Demo

This one is a demo project for handling online/offline states of application.
Current status is still WIP (Work In Progress).

Launching

Environment: Xcode 9 beta 6, Swift 4.0 for the app and Swift 3.2 for libraries.
To handle libraries I've used CocoaPods. Process:

1. Clone the repo.
2. Install dependencies (pod install) & open Demo.xcworkspace.
3. Have fun!

Also iOS 10 was chosen as a base iOS deployment target just because of Core Data updates (more below).

Technology Stack

• Moya 8 for networking
• Core Data for persistence (using container/multiple contexts instead of parent/child)
• RxSwift/RxCocoa 3.6 for Reactive Programming
• Quick 7 / Nimble 1.1 for BDD-ish testing (with given/when/then aliases)
• RxTest 3.6 for stream/events testing

TODO:

• Simplify NetworkModel -> Model -> CDModel conversion
• Use Sourcery for some parts of the app (like Equatable etc.)
• Relationships to entities: Post/Comments/Author
• Move authors/comments to its own data controllers?
• Better loading stage for details (loader for only part of the screen?)
• Better error messages
• Think about reloading the whole post maybe while in it?
