There are myriad architecture patterns to choose from, but among the most popular are Model-View-Controller (MVC), Model-View-Presenter (MVP), and Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM).
These patterns are widely used to moderate complex codes and simplify UI code by making it more neat and manageable. MV(X) architectures divide the visualising, processing, and data management functions for UI applications, which increases an app’s modularity, flexibility, and testability.
Let us take a closer look at each model to understand their differences.
Model-View-Controller (MVC)
MVC is commonly used when designing simple applications as it’s more readily modified than the other two and makes implementing changes to the app simple.
MVC consists of three components: Model, View, and Controller. “Model” is subject to the app’s business logic and manages the state of an application and handles data changes and manipulations. “View” manages UI elements by presenting data to users and managing user interactions. “Controller” mediates between view and model by processing incoming requests. Depending on an app’s requirements, there may be one or more controllers.
This pattern enables a faster development process and offers multiple views for the model.
