Full Application Demo

I have created a demo app to showcase what I have learned. I am using a Firebase Firestore as the Database, and this data is managed via an API. This API is built in Go and is running on a VPS. The user facing client is an iOS app built using SwiftUI.

Demo:

Access to Postman to send API calls to the API:

• There is no authentication, feel free to play with it.
• https://www.getpostman.com/collections/a36754b922e07ce06f38
• Some of the endpoints:
  • User endpoint: https://pace-api.jasondale.me/api/user
  • Company endpoint: https://pace-api.jasondale.me/api/company
  • Project endpoint: https://pace-api.jasondale.me/api/project

Challenges Encountered

• Figuring out the “Source of Truth”. For example:
  • if there is a situation where the app is offline, how do we deal with using the app?
  • Are changes queued and synced when connectivity is restored?
  • If that occurs, and there is a data conflict for a record, who wins? DB or app?
