SwiftUI-Pokedex

Create a Pokedex feature inside the BYU mobile app using SwiftUI.

Note: Use iOS 14 for the minimum target to take advantage of .onChange() and @StateObject

Requirements:

• Create new branch off of dev
• Create Storyboard and UIHostingController to get to initial SwiftUI view
  • Create an initial SwiftUI view

    import SwiftUI
    
    struct SwiftUIView: View {
        var body: some View {
            Text("Hello, World!")
        }
    }
    

    • Create a storyboard and place a "HostingViewController" in it
    • Create a class like the one below that inherits from UIHostingController

    import Foundation
    import SwiftUI
    
    class UIHostingViewController: UIHostingController<SwiftUIView> {
       required init?(coder: NSCoder){
           super.init(coder: coder, rootView: SwiftUIView())
       }
       
    }
    

    • Assign the above class to the storyboard HostingViewController
• Display all Pokemon from Pokemon API in a list
  • display a nagivation title
  • be able to search all pokemon by name
  • each row must be clickable and use a navigation link to navigate to detailed view
  • use a list view model to handle searching, client calls, and other non-view operations
  • use the codable protocol on model objects with the json decoder
  • use @Published property wrapper to publish changes in model object data to view
• Display an individual Pokemon in a detailed view
  • display the pokemons name
  • display the pokemon's image
  • display the pokemon's abilities
  • display the pokemon's types
  • use a detail view model to handle the client calls to get Pokemon details and other operations done in your detailed view
