Challenge Overview
Our partner is developing a state-of-the-art tablet based sales and order processing tool. Their sales team will be managing client visits, tasks, calendars, notifications, and order processing all through this tool. The platform is the Apple iPad. Want to learn Swift? Great - why not get paid for it, we need your help! There will be a long series of challenges over the coming weeks leading to the final product, so get involved now!
Challenge Summary
The purpose of this challenge is to extend our existing Swift application to make use of the UI prototypes that were built in the previous challenges. The pieces that will be touched upon here are our Leads screen, the Approvals screen, and some interactive pieces of the Manager Home Screen.
Detail
Detailed specification will be provided in the forums.
General Guideline
- All usage of API results should be null-safe. When populating objects from the JSON results if fields are missing, ensure that all usages appropriately handle the optional values.
- For all service calls, if an error occurs dispatch a “ServiceErrorOccurred” event through NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter() with relevant text about the error.
-
On all Edit or New Item screens, if a Cancel Button is tapped and information has been changed or input, display a confirmation dialog asking “Are you sure you want to cancel? Any unsaved information will be lost.” before returning to the prior state.

GIT Guidelines and Requirements
All code for this project will be maintained at Github. Challenge participants will have to request read-only access to the repository during the challenge and are expected to fork and do their coding on the challenge branch. Once contest submission closes, the project owner will update the code in the challenge branch to reflect the current state of development. The winner of the challenge will then be required to update their fork to the current state of the development repository and will be responsible for handling merge conflicts when updating their fork. They will then create a pull request.
