FlaneurFormView

public final class FlaneurFormView: UIView

View in charge of displaying form elements.

It is quite poorly designed as many problems arose late in the implementation:

  • Instead of a form, it would probably make more sense to use a table view controller
  • Using a IGListKit-backed collection view is a terrible idea, it should be a simple table view

    • Since

    Since we design a form, we should skip reusable cells and just keep stong references of every cell: we wouldn’t need a cache anymore

    objc.io’s Swit Talks addressed the problems of reusable form components design in a series. It is a good inspiration to redesign this component.

    Also, FlaneurImagePicker is actually a form component library. It would probably make sense that other form components belong to the same library, that should then be renamed FlaneurForm or something similar.
