Extreme Mobile - Innovative Techniques for Crafting Customizable Mobile Apps Using iOS Frameworks

Extreme Mobile demonstrates modern, innovative techniques for architecting reusable, customizable, brandable, and localizable iOS mobile software. The book leverages iOS Frameworks to build professional, world-class mobile applications that utilize modular feature sets.
The book begins with core concepts for developing reusable software using iOS Frameworks, and gradually builds complexity in a clear, step-by-step manner. Readers will explore Swift Protocols, the Model-View-ViewModel design pattern, local and remote services, Dependency Injection, Combine, SwiftData, Swift Testing, Storyboards, and SwiftUI. State-of-the-art techniques for dynamic framework integration are also leveraged. By the conclusion of this book, readers will have developed multiple iOS mobile applications that utilize the same frameworks, but with varying functionality, without the need to modify underlying code.
In addition to technical skills, Extreme Mobile emphasizes best practices for creating maintainable, scalable, and efficient code. Readers will gain insight into structuring applications for long-term growth, enabling rapid feature development, and maximizing code reuse across multiple projects. With real-world examples, hands-on exercises, and practical guidance, this book equips developers to produce mobile software that is not only functional but also adaptable to evolving business and user needs.

You will:

• Leverage the flexibility of iOS Frameworks to build reusable, customizable, localizable, and brandable iOS mobile applications.


• Gain expertise in modern design patterns such as Swift Protocols, Model-View-ViewModel, Dependency Injection, Combine, SwiftData, Swift Testing, Storyboards, and SwiftUI.


• Craft innovative, state-of-the-art techniques for dynamically integrating iOS Frameworks into mobile applications, without the need for code changes.
