About
Write complex reliable layouts easy,
by using declarative readable syntax and pure code approach.
This way you never has to rewrite your layout again using other whatever way to do it.
Its always compatible because it is based on basic UIKit underlying technology.
You don't need to learn new artificial paradigms to solve the same puzzle
by different methods all over again,
just get better in real programming and focus on your task,
not new ways of doing things that distract you from making great products.
Example
Readability and simplicity of approach are the solutions for maintainable code base. Using SwiftUI preview opened new previously unimaginable possibilities, where even advanced editor of Android Studio strugles. Write beatiful code while be in control of what is really happening with full access to make any fix necessary easily.
import RenetikLayout
class HeaderSectionView: CSView {
override class func construct() -> Self {
super.construct().background(color: .demo_control)
}
let header = wrap(UILabel.construct("App")).styleHeader()
let buttons = ButtonsView.construct()
override func onCreateLayout() {
super.onCreateLayout()
add(view: header).matchParentWidth().from(top: 0)
add(view: HorizontalLineStrong.constructMedium())
.fromPrevious(top: 0).matchParentWidth()
add(view: buttons).fromPrevious(top: 0).matchParentWidth()
heightByLastSubview()
}
}
#if DEBUG
import SwiftUI
class AppPreview: PreviewProvider, CSPreviewProvider {
class func preview(in view: UIView) {
view.add(view: HeaderSectionView.construct())
.matchParentWidth().heightToFit()
}
}
#endif
Create fully dynamic layouts with simple practices based on fundamental patterns and modern readable clean syntax.
Undelying codebase is easy to read and understand so you dont get lost and can focuse on how layout actually work instead of how library works.
class ButtonsView: CSView {
override class func construct() -> Self {
super.construct().background(color: .demo_control)
}
let moveButton = IconTextButton.construct(icon: .open_with, title: "Move")
let resizeButton = IconTextButton.construct(icon: .fit_screen, title: "Resize")
let scalesButton = IconTextButton.construct(icon: .aspect_ratio, title: "Scales")
let typeButton = IconTextButton.construct(icon: .dashboard, title: "Type")
override func onCreateLayout() {
super.onCreateLayout()
add(view: CSView.construct(),
onCreate: { [unowned self] horizontalView in
horizontalView.fromPrevious(top: 0).matchParentWidth().height(60)
horizontalView.add(view: moveButton,
onCreate: { $0.from(left: 0).matchParentHeight() },
onLayout: { $0.width(horizontalView.width / 2) })
horizontalView.add(view: VerticalLine.constructMedium(),
onCreate: { $0.matchParentHeight() },
onLayout: { $0.fromPrevious(left: 0) })
horizontalView.add(view: resizeButton,
onCreate: { $0.matchParentHeight() },
onLayout: { $0.fromPrevious(left: 0).width(horizontalView.width / 2) })
})
add(view: HorizontalLineStrong.constructMedium())
.fromPrevious(top: 0).matchParentWidth()
add(view: CSView.construct(),
onCreate: { [unowned self] horizontalView in
horizontalView.fromPrevious(top: 0).matchParentWidth().height(60)
horizontalView.add(view: scalesButton,
onCreate: { $0.from(left: 0).matchParentHeight() },
onLayout: { $0.width(horizontalView.width / 2) })
horizontalView.add(view: VerticalLine.constructMedium(),
onCreate: { $0.matchParentHeight() },
onLayout: { $0.fromPrevious(left: 0) })
horizontalView.add(view: typeButton,
onCreate: { $0.matchParentHeight() },
onLayout: { $0.fromPrevious(left: 0).fill(right: 0) })
})
heightByLastSubview()
}
}
Demo
To run the example project, clone the repo and open Demo project. It is demonstration of some of best approaches I use in iOS development, but more will come in other libraries.
Requirements
Open and clear mind.
Installation
You can install using swift package manager for now using latest released version.
Usage
Initialize library by calling Renetik.initialize() or look at docs or implementation to pass arguments.
Then look at usage in demo application or Documentation that will be hopefully documented better soon :),
but don't hesitate to look at actual implementation, because it's always as simple as possible, names are always descriptive,
and syntax is always readable, because I do just that, I remeber a little and have to understand it quickly from codebase again.
