## Features

- Child stores
- Fast state updates
- 100% business logic code coverage
- Lightweight
- Do not use 3rd party libraries
- Can be used with SwiftUI
- Support structs & classes for state (structs preferred)
- Thread safe
- Can be used with async/await
```swift
createMiddleware({ dispatch, getState, action in
switch action {
case .randomize:
Task.init {
let rand = await generateRandomValue()
dispatch(.receiveRandomValue(Int(rand)))
}
}
})
```

## Examples

#### Integration
- [Cocoapods integration](https://github.com/cooler333/Highway/tree/main/Examples/PodExample)
- [Swift Package Manager integration](https://github.com/cooler333/Highway/tree/main/Examples/SPMExample)

#### Swift UI
- [SimpleView](https://github.com/cooler333/Highway/blob/main/Examples/Counter/Counter/UILayer/Main/View/MainView.swift): SwiftUI View with updates
- [ListWithAimations](https://github.com/cooler333/Highway/blob/main/Examples/Animation/Animation/UILayer/Root/SwiftUIView/RootView.swift): Data Driven UI using SwiftUI List

#### Tests
- [Snapshot testing](https://github.com/cooler333/Highway/tree/main/Examples/InfiniteScroll/InfiniteScrollTests/Stories/Mail/SnapshotListTests.swift): Snapshot tests based on fast unit tests
- [Unit testing business logic](https://github.com/cooler333/Highway/tree/main/Examples/InfiniteScroll/InfiniteScrollTests/Stories/Mail/LogicListTests.swift): Custom logic tests / Integration tests for Model Layer

#### Light/Small Apps
- [Counter](https://github.com/cooler333/Highway/tree/main/Examples/Counter): Lighweight multi store app (Single view controller with multiple child view controller)
- [SocketPingPong](https://github.com/cooler333/Highway/tree/main/Examples/SocketPingPong): An app with stream of events (like web socket or server side events)
- [ReusableViewControllers](https://github.com/cooler333/Highway/tree/main/Examples/ReusableViewControllers): Reuse view controller or view which was written with imperative style and similar example using ViewStore
- [Animation](https://github.com/cooler333/Highway/tree/main/Examples/Animation): Animation inside TableView cells using DiffableDataSource & SwiftUI List views(items)
- [TableViewsSync](https://github.com/cooler333/Highway/tree/main/Examples/TableViewsSync): TableView with animations (deletions/insertions) and syncronisation

#### Heavy Apps
- [InfiniteScroll](https://github.com/cooler333/Highway/tree/main/Examples/InfiniteScroll): Enterprise solution app (with Dependency Injection, Flow Coordinator e.t.c.)

## Requirements

- iOS: 13.0
- Swift: 5.4

## Installation (Cocoapods / SPM)

Highway is available through [CocoaPods](https://cocoapods.org). To install
it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:

```ruby
pod 'Highway'
```

Also you can integrate framework as SPM package

## Schemes

#### Simple unidirectional data flow

General

1. UI generate Action
1. Action goes to Store
1. Store mutate State (if needed)
1. new State goes to UI
1. Action goes to Middleware
1. Middleware generate new action (if needed)
1. new Action from Middleware goes to Store
1. Store mutate State (if needed)
1. new State goes to UI

#### Single shared state

Child

- Multiple Stores share single State
- State not copied for each new SubStore
- State mutation goes down to parent store
