Going Pro With ProMotion: From Prototype To Production
summary
A lightweight RubyMotion gem that replaces Cocoa Touch boilerplate with a small DSL, offering an app delegate wrapper, promotion table screen (array-of-hashes data, searchable and refreshable helpers), web and map screens, and simple styling hooks. Production use includes Walker Tracker and Darkroom; v1.2 is 36 files (~2,073 LOC) with 521 tests and 37 contributors, ~970 GitHub stars. PM2 trims ~20% of code (~1,600 LOC), builds 55% faster and raises CodeClimate scores, and remains compatible with RMQ, Teacup and MotionKit.
