VIPER Design Pattern

• View: Presents the user interface and handles user interactions.
• Interactor: Contains the business logic and interacts with the data layer.
• Presenter: Formats the data to be displayed in the view and handles user inputs.
• Entity: Represents the data objects used by the application.
• Router: Manages navigation between modules.

• TVMaze_App_Example is a fully functional application that can be further optimized for performance and scalability. Due to time constraints, certain optimizations may not have been implemented in this version.
• The decision to use the VIPER architecture was deliberate as it provides a clean separation of concerns and enhances maintainability, especially as the project scales. In UIKit-based applications like this, VIPER architecture offers a structured approach that aids in managing complexity and promoting code reusability.
