Weekly Roundup

Allows you to have implement a “pull to refresh” control on any UIScrollView. Why is better than other implementations?

• It’s unintrusive, and simply observes the content offset of the scroll view.
• You can provide custom views.
• You can provide custom behaviors to the “refresh” cycle! AKA Once pulled past a certain offset, you can perform anything you want!

With this you can literally implement any “pull-to-refresh” library with the 6 delegates inside!

NOTE: This library was created by the wonderful team of https://github.com/bONchON and https://github.com/timothy1ee from GoMiso.

Every other app or so use some kind of either JSON feed or a JSON based API for its backed. Few though are built to be robust, stable and performant; the proper way to work with JSON is to use data models to fit the Cocoa MVC workflow. JSONModel gives you smart models, networking and smart API client for free. And it is also cross platform – iOS or OSX it’s all good :]

Save yourself tons of lines of code and gain control of your JSON based communication.

CLFContainerViewController makes it much easier to create custom container view controllers.

With this class, you can create container view controllers whose children occupy the entire bounds of the container. For example, your subclass could mimic a UINavigationController, a UITabBarController, or a UIPageViewController, though you are certainly not limited to recreating already existing containers.

The view controller hierarchy, the view hierarchy, and the view appearance calls are all managed by the base class, so you won’t have to worry about any of those details when creating your custom container class. Instead, you can focus on how your container will look and act.
