Introduction to fundamental architectural design patterns

- [Instructor] You wouldn't start building an iOS app, or any other software system for that matter without a clear idea about its architecture. The way we structure, and organize our code has serious implications. The lack of guiding principles results in cluttered code, and a tightly coupled system. Such a code base is challenging to maintain, and more prone to bugs. There are several commonly used architectural design patterns that are a good fit for iOS app development. If you're looking for an iOS job chances are that you'll be asked about MVC, MVP, or MVVM. While these pattern show some differences they all have one major thing in common. They help us in separating the concerns within our app. We'll start with the model view controller, the oldest architectural design pattern that's been used for iOS app development.
