Best Practices in Core Data explained within a demo application as presented during NSSpain.

• Core Data Stack Setup
• Fetched Results Controller
• NSFetchRequests
• Diffable Data Sources
• Optimised saving
• Constraints
• Derived Attributes
• Transformables
• Validation
• Life Cycle Events
• Batch Insertions
• Batch Deletions
• Persistent History Tracking
• Threading
• Core Data and Combine
• NSExpressionDescriptions
• Unit Testing Core Data

I would love for this project to grow as a source of best practices regarding Core Data. I'll try to add my own learnings to this project too. There are many sources available on the internet but we lack a bit of example code. Hopefully, this way, we make it easier to adopt best practices in Core Data.

This project is originally created by Antoine van der Lee based on experienced from developing Collect by WeTransfer. Many detailed explanations can be found on his SwiftLee blog:

• Derived Attributes to improve Core Data Fetch Performance
• Constraints in Core Data Entities explained
• Persistent History Tracking in Core Data
