Chronograph — in-house Pomodoro timer and task management app (App Dev Academy) that tracks work intervals with configurable work/break cycles, manages tasks with due dates, and syncs data across devices. Shares codebase with the macOS version.
Technical info:
- Written in Swift, Storyboard-based UIKit architecture (~164 shared + platform-specific source files)
- Custom generic
StateMachine<T>for timer state transitions — Pomodoro cycles (work → short break → long break) withwillChangeState/didChangeStatecallbacks - Core Data persistence —
TaskandIntervalentities with soft deletion and local change tracking for sync - Alamofire networking with Router enum pattern — API clients for auth, tasks, intervals, users, and subscriptions
- SynchronizationManager — bi-directional sync with backend, queued export/import, periodic background sync with concurrency guards
- Facebook SDK + email/password auth; SAMKeychain for token storage
- Charts library for statistics visualization; Firebase analytics; Fabric/Crashlytics
- In-App Subscriptions (StoreKit) with server-side receipt validation
- Local notifications with smart scheduling — generates future notification chains based on current Pomodoro state
- Universal app: iPhone + iPad support, deployment target iOS 10.0+
My role:
- Design app architecture and build from scratch
- Design Core Data schema and implement bi-directional sync with REST API
- Build custom analog/digital clock and timer UI components
- Implement shared codebase between iOS and macOS versions
- iPad version of the app
- Integration of analytics and In-App Subscriptions
