KISS AKA Keep It Simple, Soyoucancomplicateitlater
summary
Argues for using Apple-provided tools instead of reinventing: use Interface Builder + Auto Layout and storyboards (split large storyboards to avoid Git conflicts) to get new device behavior for free; adopt Core Data for persistence because it’s Apple-supported, fast in practice, supports predicates and raw SQL, and now has sync options; and add unit tests early and incrementally (use dependency injection to enable testing legacy code) because tests speed development and improve code structure over time.
