Architecture

The applcation follows 3 tier architecture. We are not using local persitance model becaue its better to give no weather than an irrelevant weather report of the past.

• The layers are

  • Services (Location and REST services)
  • ViewModel
  • View

The ViewController is treated as a part of view as per MVVM. ViewController is in has a relation with view model and view The view model communicate with the view controller using KVO and notification center.
