Locked decisions

Layer	Decision
Distribution	App Store (starting without developer program membership)
UI	SwiftUI
Architecture	MVVM with lightweight service layer
Concurrency	Swift async/await
Persistence	SwiftData (offline-first)
Networking	URLSession (scaffolded for future use)
Push	Stubbed until signing available
Dependencies	Minimal; Swift Package Manager only if needed
Environments	local → non-prod → prod
Quality gates	Strict (tests required, SwiftLint enforced)

Project layout

code

MyApp/
  Features/               # Feature modules (View + ViewModel)
  UIComponents/           # Shared UI primitives
  Services/
    Persistence/          # PersistenceStore protocol + SwiftDataStore
    Notifications/        # Push handling (stubbed)
    Network/              # API client (scaffolded)
    Config/               # Environment configuration
  Infrastructure/         # Router, composition root
  Models/                 # SwiftData models
  Resources/              # Assets, strings

Key patterns

Environment switching

•Environment.swift with .local, .nonProd, .prod cases
•Resolved at build time via scheme + build configuration
•API base URLs, feature flags per environment

Persistence boundary

•PersistenceStore protocol defines all data operations
•SwiftDataStore is the concrete implementation
•ViewModels never touch SwiftData directly

Push notification stubbing

•NotificationService exists with full interface
•Permission requests return simulated success in local/non-prod
•Token registration logs locally until signing available
•Swap to real implementation when developer membership active
