8 years ago :+1: nice work. The point of this homework was to explore a simple example of a full MVC application with a RESTful API.
You definitely win the award for best project name this week. Name aside, you could improve your submission even more by setting the correct UIContentMode on your imageviews to scale the images properly. But good job on search. It'd be great to have a "no results" view, though.
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.
One of the most important part of these projects is that you add additional features and tweak the UI / UX because that will provide many more learning opportunities. I would encourage you to complete the projects each week with required stories early and then spend time adding your own UI elements and experimenting with optional extensions that will improve the user experience.
We have provided a detailed Project 1 Feedback Guide here which covers the most common points we see for this project. Read through the feedback guide point-by-point to determine other ways you could improve your submission. You should consider going back and implementing applicable feedback as well. Keep in mind that one of the most important parts of iOS development is learning the correct patterns and conventions.
