Project Check In #1

I have implemented these two screens following the apple developer guide. I am currently working on a "feed" that will replace the list format of the first frame and instead will cycle through the topics in the format shown in the second frame. I need to figure out how to change the JSON of the topic once the user clicks either like or dislike. I also need to figure out how to implement functions... I am planning on revisiting the MVVM structure from the memorize app I built following the Stanford tutorial. I am having a hard time figuring out how pages connect. With web design, HTML is the format, CSS is the design, and JavaScript holds the functions. With swift, I have no idea where things are supposed to go and how to connect them together. I also cannot seem to find a simple break down of this on the internet (we should go over this in class wink wink)

Checklist:

• make like and dislike button work (change the "isLiked" and "isDisliked" variables in JSON)
• connect like and dislike buttons so when like is pressed unlike is unchecked (can you have one button with 2 icons?)
• figure out how to make the feed, I think I could use a ForEach (I tried this and it failed but I will try again)
• figure out how the user will "scroll" through the feed (buttons? swiping?)
• make it cute because she is the trenches right now
• add more JSON data (maybe categories the polls "animals", "food", etc.)
• add a daily poll (DP) feature
• add a user profile feature showing their likes and dislikes
• add a navigation bar to get between the features (if I can implement the other features)

I am really excited about this app but feel really lost on the general process of making a swift app. I am slowly chipping away at it as my eye balls melt into my computer screen, but if you know of any resources that can explain swift logic in a simple way please share it with me. I need someone to draw out on a white board how the different .swiftui and .swift pages connect.

Also side note, I made a new app repo because things got really scary in the old one. The new one is MAD-Polls, and I updated this on my config.yml so you should be able to find it but if not let me know :)
