HomeAway Coding Challenge

Help us understand how you think about building great software.

Summary

Write a type ahead against the Seat Geek API. The type ahead should update a list of results as the search query changes. Results can be tapped to view them on a details screen.

Requirements

  1. Write a type ahead against the Seat Geek API
  2. Make a detail screen so the user can drill down into a result
  3. Include instructions for building the application and any relevant documentation in a README.md file
  4. Please post your submission on Github, Bitbucket or Gitlab

Optional

  1. The detail screen should allow the user to favorite/unfavorite the event
  2. Type ahead results should reflect the favorited state of each event
  3. Favorited results should be saved between launches of the app

The two screens can look similar to these:

Search screen Details screen

Guidelines

The coding challenge will be judged on

  1. Attention to detail
  2. Architectural choices
  3. Testability
  4. Understanding of iOS libraries and SDKs

Please write your code in Swift. Feel free to take advantage of third-party, open source libraries.
