OPEN SOURCE, LANGUAGE, REACTIVE PROGRAMMING, FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING

Swift 5.5 introduced structured concurrency, and with it came AsyncSequence: a new way to provide a flow of values over time. Wait, what? Isn't this what Combine is all about? From Apple: "The Combine framework provides a declarative Swift API for processing values over time". Are these technologies similar? Interchangeable? Well, sort of! In this article we will explore the differences and similarities between them and we will go over a repo that brings Combine-like operators to AsyncSequence.

Introducing Spin

Introducing Spin, a universal feedback loop system in Swift. A Feedback Loop is a system that is able to self-regulate by using the resulting value from its computations as the next input to itself, constantly adjusting this value according to given rules.

RxReduce: Reactive State Container Architecture Part 2

As we saw in “RxReduce: A Reactive State Container Architecture Part 1”, State is a central concern in applications. I strongly invite you to take a look at this first article. So far, we haven’t introduced the concept of Reactive Programming and how it can address some issues I’ve encountered in traditional implementations of State Containers. We will see how RxReduce, an open source framework of the RxSwiftCommunity, can help you handle the State, its mutations, and the asynchronous work related to the side effects, in a Reactive way.

RxReduce: Reactive State Container Architecture Part 1

State management has become a very popular concern lately in mobile applications. The idea of a state that should be the single source of truth within an application is quite attractive ! The views would only be a displayable artefact of this state 👌.

Elegantly chaining UIViewPropertyAnimators

Usually my posts are mostly about design patterns, software architectures (or RxFlow 😀), but this time it will be different and frankly I didn't think I would write about this kind of topic. But I think I have something cool to share: so today we are going to talk about Animations with Swift.

RxFlow Part 3: Tips and tricks

This is the final chapter of our journey within RxFlow. I’ve already exposed all the key features/principles of the framework in these 2 previous parts, let’s dive into some tips and tricks I used thanks to Reactive Programming.

RxFlow Part 2: In Practice

A few weeks ago I introduced in this blog an iOS framework called RxFlow. I’ve been working on this framework for several months, and it is now ready to be used. If you haven’t read it yet, I suggest you take a look at this post "RxFlow Part1: In Theory".

RxFlow Part 1: In Theory

This is a first article in a series that will be the heart of this blog for a while. I’m going to introduce RxFlow: a framework of my design implementing Reactive Flow Coordinator within iOS applications. RxFlow relies on RxSwift and is a project supported by the RxSwiftCommunity.
