Swift: Auto Layout - How to use Model View Controller MVC (Ep 5)

Today's lesson will go through a bit of the Model View Controller pattern, often referred to as MVC. We'll explore why its a good idea to separate classes with well defined boundaries. In fact, let's create a Page Model and coordinate with the Controller to show this in our View Layer, which is Page Cell. It's an abstract concept that hopefully will sink in with this practical example. Enjoy.

Excellent lesson! Something I can put to immediate use. I have been using model objects, but the "didset" property is something new to me. I was watching the video and just saying "yeah, okay", until you got to that.

I am so happy the new course is out! I was honestly looking forward.

Just can't wait for the next ep. Nice tutorial.

Please do a video on MVVM architecture and VIPER.

one of the best tutorials I've ever come across. But the thing is now there are too many Pages in this code. A page for model page cell page for everything.

Hey dude! after doing some research, I realized that setting the views inside the constructor of the cell isn't the best way because it slows down horribly the scroll of the collectionView. After lots digging, I found that the best way is to set it inside the willDisplayCell method. That way, it won't take forever

[nezhawong]

Thanks you very much.but one thing I felt uncertain, is ViEW can have a property to store data?

MVC is deprecated in Android. In Android we use MVP. equivalent MVP for iOS is VIPER. So. it will good to see VIPER tutorials too )))

Hi Brian! Thank you so much! That was helpful. Just quick question, how do i add checkboxes and button in the Cell? instead of having image, header and description, I want each Cell to have buttons and other to have a form with edittext views. Please help. Thank you

Hey Brian, really good stuff here lol. But I've got a question, how do I add different elements to the pages? Like a text field in one of the pages but on one of the other pages, I wanna add a different element, like button or something. I appreciate your feedback! :)

[Deepmindsecret]

is it possible to add different UIview like buttons in every page and also what if i will need just to show one button in one page and not in all of them? is it possible? i saw that the setup of the page structure will have to include things like images and texts, i guess that i will have to add UIview for the button inside the structure too, but that is where my question goes, what if i just need to show just one button in just one page, how can i specify this a good example was the moment he didnt write anything in the last bodytext he just set the string as "" empty, can i do the same with the button? sorry for the redundant question i did my best lol

Hi, a question. Having watched the ios course from stanford on itunes U for a few years, the tutor says that the view should never communicate with the model, the controller should deal with bridging between the two, ie the controller should tell the view what parts of the model to display. By passing the model object(the page) to the view(the pagecell) you are breaking that rule. I realise it makes more sense to do it that way but does it break true MVC ?

I'm new to iOS dev and after a long search, I failed to find any tutorial explaining what exactly does all these files in project work and how they map to each other. Could u please do a short intro on this basic structure? ;)

[shawnbierman]

If I put a button on one of these cells, how can I transfer the indexPath of its parent cell to the model? I would like to use buttons to move to the next/previous cells in lieu of swiping.

Hello Brian, love your videos. Thanks for sharing with us your knowledge 👍🏼. I have a question: is it important to know the C language in order to be a good Swift programmer? Thank you so much

I don't understand why all your text got bold. after I change to headerStrings, all the text become normal text.
