Re: [swift-users] Class vs Structures

An addendum: if something represents a specific “thing” that can’t be duplicated without consequence, often that means it should be stored in one specific place in your code, not made into a class. On Fri, Jun 30, 2017 at 10:10 PM, Brent Royal-Gordon via swift-users < swift-users@swift.org>

Re: [swift-users] Class vs Structures

The Ray Wenderlich style guide contains *some* useful insights, but you should not take it as a “swift best practices” guide, or even a good code style guide for your own projects. At the risk of sounding blunt, the RW style guide is optimized for blog posts and cheap tutorials, not a cohesive

Re: [swift-users] Class vs Structures

Hi Alex, Thank you for the reply, actually Taylor gave me a great answer which solved my question, that was "struct or classes and when should we apply each". Regarding the reference I found this https://github.com/raywenderlich/swift-style-guide#code-organization which doesn't follow exactly

Re: [swift-users] Class vs Structures

Re: [swift-users] Class vs Structures

When in doubt, go with a struct. Probably nineteen types out of twenty I write are structs. Swift really is optimized with the assumption that you’re working with structs, that’s why almost everything in the standard library is a value type. Structs always pack contiguously into arrays, while

[swift-users] Class vs Structures

Hi, I know this question is probably done a thousand times, but I wanted to hear from Swift dev community. I think both of them have right places for usage depending on the occasion but documentation, WWDC and the internet give opposite answers regarding this. Do you guys have any guideline
