Description: Swift development in a data decentral universe
And so we arrive at the final station. This series on replicating types in Swift ends with this post. I will no doubt revisit various aspects of replicating types in other posts, but we are closing out the series proper here.
To recap, we have moved through Conflict Free Replicated Data Types (CRDTs) from the perspective of a Swift app developer, beginning with what they are and why they are useful, the mathematical features they must possess, the tricks and tools you can use to build them, and finishing with a series of posts on different types of CRDTs, from basic register types that are well suited to simple atomic properties, up to more complex array and dictionary types capable of recursive merging.
In this post, I’ll bring all of this together into a real world app. We won’t concentrate on details of SwiftUI or Combine, which are used throughout the app, but the code is there if these aspects intrigue you. Instead, the focus will be on model and data handling.
