State Management in iOS with Combine and ViewModel Training Course

Rating

9/10

Duration

3 Days

Course Overview

This course introduces state management in iOS applications using Combine and the MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel) architecture. Participants will learn how to implement reactive programming with Combine to handle asynchronous data streams, structure apps using ViewModel, and create scalable and maintainable iOS applications. The training includes hands-on exercises for handling network requests, UI updates, and data binding in a clean and efficient way.

Format of Training

  • Instructor-led sessions
  • Hands-on lab exercises
  • Interactive discussions
  • Practical coding demonstrations

Course Objectives

  1. Understand state management and why it’s important in iOS applications.
  2. Implement the MVVM architecture for better code organization.
  3. Use Combine to handle asynchronous data streams.
  4. Work with Publishers and Subscribers in Combine.
  5. Implement data binding between ViewModel and View.
  6. Manage UI updates efficiently using Combine and MVVM.
  7. Apply best practices for structuring scalable iOS applications.
