2.0 Roadmap

[markohlebar]

• protocols and categories instead of concrete BNDView / BNDViewController subclasses for MVVM
• dropping XIB support because of the first point
• dropping data controllers
• adding abstractions BNDTableViewController and BNDCollectionViewController to support rapid development
• splitting BNDBinding and MVVM related implementation into separate projects

Is this still on-going or did you drop this project? @markohlebar

Seems to be the cleanest repo on GitHub. Great work!

[markohlebar]

Hey @IHEARTCOOKIES thanks 👍 I don't think I will continue development on this repo, since it works pretty well as is. I've started working on Swift implementation that is more oriented to standardising the way we do MVVM, but it's still not production ready.

I'll add a notice to the README saying BIND is not actively maintained.

[IHEARTCOOKIES]

Okay, sounds good. Thank you for your reply @markohlebar

[IHEARTCOOKIES]

Just curious, would you say that the framework as it is right now is stable enough to use in production mode?

Saw that you opened NSConcretePointerArray arrayGrow: for example. Does this effect production apps? If so, do you know any alternatives that might be in active development?

@IHEARTCOOKIES the framework is currently used in a huge betting company production app, but if you find any problems you'll have to do a fork and fix it yourself :)

As for alternatives, if you're looking for bindings and observables I'd look at ReactiveCocoa, although if you're just looking for UI Bindings, that might be too heavy. If you're looking at a framework that handles large collection views take a look at IGListKit. Hope this helps!

[IHEARTCOOKIES]

It surely does. Thank you! @markohlebar
