If you are a Point-Free subscriber you can access your private podcast feed by visiting https://www.pointfree.co/account. --- We have now implemented tree-based navigation in UIKit, driven by the Observation framework, but there is another form of navigation to think about: stack-based navigation, where you drive your navigation from a flat collection of states rather than a heavily-nested type. Let's leverage Observation to build a really nice tool for stack-based navigation ..read more

But never fear, we can rebuild them from scratch! Let's build `@Binding` and `@Bindable` from scratch to see how they work, and we will use them to drive concise, tree-based navigation using enums ..read more

Let's improve these APIs to handle dismissal by leveraging another SwiftUI tool: bindings. We will see how SwiftUI bindings are (almost) the perfect tool for UIKit navigation, and we will see where they fall short ..read more

We will use it to build state-driven navigation tools that can drive alerts, sheets, popovers, drill-downs, and more, and they will look a lot like SwiftUI's navigation tools ..read more

Surprisingly, Swift 5.9's observation tools _can_ be used in UIKit, and in fact they work _great_, despite being specifically tuned for SwiftUI ..read more

Please enjoy this episode, and if you find this interesting you may want to consider a subscription https://www.pointfree.co/pricing. --- We finish building a modern UIKit application with brand new state-driven tools, including a complex collection view that can navigate to two child features. And we will see that, thanks to our back-port of Swift's observation tools, we will be able to deploy our app all the way back to iOS 13 ..read more

We love SwiftUI, but there will still be times you must drop down to UIKit, and so we want to show what modern UIKit development can look like if you put in a little bit of effort to build tools that allow you to model your domains as concisely as possible ..read more

It currently models its user settings as a cumbersome dependency that requires a lot of code to keep features in sync when settings change. We should be able to greatly simplify things with the `@Shared` property wrapper ..read more

We will see that we can delete hundreds of lines of boilerplate of coordination between parent and child features, _and_ we won't have to sacrifice any testability, including the _exhaustive_ testability provided by the library ..read more
