Detailed Notes

In general, you should challenge yourself to create visually polished applications. That's where you'll find all the rough edges of the iOS framework and earn the next level of mastery.

• Nice work encapsulating the properties into the private class extension for better encapsulation.
• Nice work using private scope for your properties and your functions for better encapsulation.
• You should avoid using self when unnecessary. You just need it when you are in a block.
• Nice work specifying the Auto Layout constraints.
• Note that you should try handling the conditionally present retweet label in the in TweetCell. This is a situation where it's not possible to specify the behavior by only the Interface Builder. You can refer to real Twitter app to see how this is displayed when someone retweet from other.
• Nice work setting up the controls within the Tweet cells. It can sometimes be hard to have a clean design for embedded controls because it usually involves cumbersome plumbing. This is an instance where I think having the model handle the network action helps greatly simplify the implementation.
• You should try implementing the post tweet insertion into the feed, meaning user no need to pull to refresh and see the tweet he/she has posted. In real MVC apps, the more polished experiences have to do a certain amount of local object management to make a fully seamless experience.
