Adam Block - Off the Rails: Why it's Time to Go Beyond 'MVC' for Cocoa

Looking for Contract Work? Email steve@bixbyapps.com for details.

This month Adam Block will be presenting his talk "Off the Rails: Why it's Time to Go Beyond 'MVC' for Cocoa Development". The talk will cover how the MVC pattern is implemented in Cocoa, and why it breaks down at the UIViewController. Adam will review the VC's weaknesses -- code reuse, separation of concerns, testing -- before talking about how ditching MVC and rethinking iOS projects in terms of Model-View-ViewModel can help developers escape the VC trap.

Adam is an iOS engineer and leads the product team at Breeze, which brings mobile software-as-a-service to home service pros like plumbers, locksmiths, and handymen.

Interested in Speaking or Hosting NSMeetup?

Please reach out to Steve Derico (steve@bixbyapps.com) if you are interested. We are looking for hosts for upcoming events with seating for at least 100 people, in the San Francisco city limits. Every month, we meet for some tech talks and free beer. iOS developers can present their newest project/library and then we'll have an hour of networking and drinks. Topics will stay specific to Objective-C and iOS. Open-source projects are highly encouraged.

We cannot hold the door open for everyone once the talk has started. You must be RSVP'd to enter the event.
