📱 FastNews

FastNews is a news application built using MVVM-C (Model-View-ViewModel-Coordinator) architecture with RxSwift. This project serves as a demonstration of integrating RxSwift within an MVVM-C pattern while showcasing dependency injection, navigation handling, and synchronized API calls.

🚀 Features

• Three TabBar Sections:

  • Posts: Fetches and displays posts from JSONPlaceholder.
  • Sources: Allows users to select different news sources.
  • Categories: Enables category-based filtering for news.

• RxSwift & Concurrency Handling

  • The Posts tab demonstrates a synchronized API call to fetch posts at launch.
  • The Splash Screen is locked until the data is fully retrieved and stored in UserDefaults.

• Dependency Injection

  • Implemented using Swinject for better modularity and testability.

• Navigation with RxFlow

  • Steppers in the ViewModel communicate with Flow and Stepper classes for seamless navigation.

• Code Quality & Best Practices

  • SwiftLint ensures consistent and clean coding style.
  • RxDataSources is used for efficiently managing UI updates.

🛠 Technologies & Frameworks

• RxSwift & RxCocoa – Reactive programming for handling asynchronous tasks and data binding.
• RxDataSources – Efficiently managing and updating UITableView & UICollectionView.
• Swinject – Lightweight dependency injection framework.
• RxFlow – Coordinating navigation flow within the MVVM-C pattern.
• UserDefaults – Storing fetched posts locally.
• SwiftLint – Enforcing coding style best practices.

📂 Branches & Package Management

• The main branch uses CocoaPods for dependency management.
• The task/migrate-to-spm branch contains migration to Swift Package Manager (SPM).
• Minimum Deployment Target: iOS 17.6 in task/migrate-to-spm
