Taiki Suzuki: MVVM & Flux

MVC, MVP and MVVM are popular iOS design patterns. Facebook has proposed a new design pattern for web apps called "Flux"; although its focus is web, can Flux be used in iOS app development?

In this talk, I'll introduce Flux with a Github user search Demo app. In addition, I'll introduce combining Flux and MVVM design patterns to show how to separate Presentation Logic from View Controller.

Taiki is an iOS developer working for a company called CyberAgent, inc in Tokyo, Japan. He has over 7 years experience developing for the iOS platform. He is an active OSS contributor and has some Github repositories with over 1000 stars. You can find him on Twitter (https://twitter.com/marty_suzuki) and Github (https://github.com/marty-suzuki).

Harlan Kellaway: Should Code Always be DRY?

"The Wrong Abstraction" by Sandi Metz tells us "No"! Inspired by such pieces as well as work on various production apps, this talk explores when we might employ tactics we've been told are categorically bad.
