Architecture For iOS & Android Apps: MVI - The Model-View-Intent in SwiftUI and Android Apps

What is Model-View-Intent (MVI) Patterns?

MVI belongs to the Model-View-* architectural design patterns. Model-View-* family includes:
  1. Model-View-Controller (MVC)
  2. Model-View-Presenter (MVP)
  3. Model-View-View-Model (MVVM)
  4. Model-View-Intent (MVI)
MVI is similar to Model-View-Presenter but with added Intents. This MV* pattern can be use in the presentation layer of a Layered Architecture designs. The controller defines functionality that can communicate with other layers of a project. For example a controller can query or persist something to the database-layer via Interactors. The Presenter is a controller but with a state that a view can observe. A ViewModel is a presenter too.

MVI evolves from MVP. MVVM evolves from MVP. MVP evolves from MVC.
