We at QuickBird Studios are working on large-scale apps that grow over years and that’s why our team worked really hard to find suitable architectural patterns for our use cases. We described our use of MVVM and Functional Reactive Programming in some of our previous blog posts like this one. One topic we didn’t […]
The new buzzword to impress your friends: Functional Reactive Programming (FRP) Using Functional Reactive Programming, you write less code, you have fewer bugs, you can program asynchronously without killing yourself, it’s just awesome. That’s what they told me. Everybody talks about it but many people don’t really know what it fundamentally is. So what is […]
We at QuickBird Studios are often faced with a wide variety of problems. Some of them are very easy to solve, some of them are very, very hard and some are … let’s say… „very unique“ 😅. We tried a lot of different patterns and strategies to solve those problems and one pattern that we […]
Over the last couple of months, Realm became the go-to mobile database solution. It’s a mobile, offline-first database solution to store your app’s data without the need of working with lower level solutions like SQLite or Core Data. And most importantly: It’s platform independent and works on Android and iOS. But what happens if you […]
A common problem while developing apps is that you end up with over-complicated classes containing View logic as well as business logic. Both are so intertwined that it’s impossible to test them independently. Code-readability suffers and future code changes are hard to implement. Since there are almost no constraints to your architecture in Flutter, it’s […]
The problem with the way many people implement and explain their app architecture is something like that: The Fragment or UIViewController becomes a massive class that contains business logic as well as view details. Both are so intertwined that it’s impossible to test them independently. Code-readability suffers and future code changes are hard to implement. […]
Like any piece of software, mobile apps need to be tested to make sure they work correctly. Otherwise, your app might crash on your user’s devices or has other bugs. You get bad ratings, people uninstall your app. You lost the race faster than you can say Jack Robinson. In this article, we cover the […]
Today is a really special day for us. It’s not just the day we release our first blog post, but it is also the second birthday of our company. The last two years were a really exciting time and changed all our lives. Today we will take a look back at the past two years, […]
