DESIGN FEATURES
Custom Table View Cells - I designed a custom table view cell to show basic player information for each player the database search returned. This includes name, series, team and position overlaid on their team's colors, and the stat the user chose to sort their search by.
​
Radar Chart - I created a custom chart that is drawn on a UIView using bezier paths. The graph is reusable and can automatically redraw the axis and data when passed new values, labels, or number of values and labels.
Core Data Database - All the player data has to be stored somewhere. I chose to implement core data so the database could be accessed offline.
​
Firebase Backend - Player's in-game ratings change and new players are released regularly. Instead of forcing users to update to get the latest version, the app checks for updates and downloads the latest player information from a Google Firebase database.
