Role of Team Members

Develop a simple online digital tour guide on Sydney city for the iOS mobile device

Aim of the project

iOS application on exploring the city Sydney, Australia

Users to explore the classical and traditional places of the city

Users to deliver a tour plan accordingly on their current locations

Navigates the user to their destination comfortably

App Design Basics

Must be Different in Background and Foreground

Runs Simultaneously apps in the background

Only one foreground App but multiple apps can run in the background

Core App Objects

For iOS apps, performance means more than just writing fast code

App does not degrade battery life significantly

The types of changes that are likely to provide the most benefit

Development

Practical aspects involved with implementing your app

 installed the iOS SDK and configured your development environment

Prerequisites

App Store provides information for Developing Environment on how to configure the Development Process and an overview

Design PatternsThe great thing about these patterns is they

work well regardless of the tools you are using—whether it’s Objective-C and iOS, Java and Android, or C# and Windows Phone

Evolution and Changes in Apps

Not just once or twice, but many times over—and that’s even before you release it to the App store for the first time

After it’s released, your App will change even more as others use it, provide feedback and suggest enhancements

Where to Implement? User Interface(UI) Core logic Data It is a Monolithic architecture that is difficult to

change Creates a situation where you can’t change one

part of the App without changing the other

Model-View-ControllerA more formal way to look at the three main

parts of an App is by means of the Model-View-Controller design pattern

Model →  DataView → User InterfaceController → Core Logic

ModelThe Model is your application’s data and, in

iOS, usually takes the form of entities. An entity represents an object in the real world

Customer entity, Order entity, and Product entity

VisionVision is the interaction between the user and the systems directly. The user interacts with objects likeButtons Slide barDropdown boxesSearch bar

ControllerThe Controller acts as an intermediary

between the Model and the View. The Controller is where your core logic goes

Flow diagram

InteractionUser interacts with viewTouchTap Pinch

Interaction contd.,In response, the View passes a call to the

Controller, and the Controller does something related to the response based on that interaction

Alternative Process Interaction

Sometimes when saved, a Model entity, it gets new or default values

For example, if you save a new location entity, it may be assigned an location number. So, the model can fire an event that tells the controller

Defects  A view is typically bound to a single view

controller Ultimately, the view controller is a user-interface

object. It’s not the tight coupling between the view and the view controller that’s the problem—that’s perfectly fine

The problem is the core logic code that’s in the view controller

Defects contd.,Unfortunately, because the core logic is

buried inside the view controller, there isn’t a clean way to reuse this logic in another App. It’s “stuck in the weeds” of the user interface

Better Implementation Techniques

Put in the core logic in some other place where you can access it from multiple Apps, or from multiple view controllers in a single App
