## What it is
A collection of sample iOS apps demonstrating different architectural patterns such as MVC, MVVM, MVP, VIPER, RIBs, and Redux, each in its own directory. It serves as a comparative learning resource showing how view code and business logic are wired in each approach.

## Use cases
- compare iOS architecture patterns side by side
- learn how MVVM with RxSwift works in Swift
- understand VIPER and RIBs through example code
- decide which architecture to use for an iOS app
- study sample single-screen and multi-screen iOS apps

## When to choose
- you are learning or teaching iOS app architecture patterns
- you want concrete Swift code examples of MVVM, VIPER, or RIBs
- you are evaluating which architecture fits your iOS project

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready framework or library to drop into an app
- you need actively maintained, up-to-date Swift version support
- you are not developing for iOS

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: developer-tools, documentation
- domain: mobile-development, tutorials, programming-languages
- platform: -
- tags: ios-architecture, mvc, mvvm, viper, ribs, rxswift, redux, sample-apps, swift, ios
