Write a simple example

[alaincaltieri]

I'd propose a posts showcase for thecodinglove.com gifs.

I already implemented part of it when playing with Katana the first time, so it should be rather fast to implement (main difficulty may be playing gifs, which is not a big deal tho, I can develop an element for that or use plain images).

Why I think it may fit well:

• It's funny for a developer.
• Can be tuned to be more or less complex depending on how deep we want to go. For example, if we want just to show the basic concept we can just develop a one page showcase. If we want to show some async actions we can fetch stuff from remote. Etc. It may thereby be good also for a more complex tutorial ala React.
• We may even reach out to the guys behind the website and leverage their network (just a possibility)

I like the idea!
The only concern I have is about playing gifs. Can we do it without importing a third party library? I'd prefer to don't have complicated setup for these examples.

I think we should also have an even easier example. Something local, like a todo app that can be used to explore the very basic of Katana. What do you think?

Yep, I found a way to create a simple UIImage Category for playing Gifs that just works and is around 100 lines of code. We don't need any external library for that.

About the simpler demo for me is ok also a TODO list or something comparable in difficulty. Another option would be a simplified version of the Posts feed too.

I'm fine with both, your call on this last one

Let's go with the gif app you suggested :) we can add a simpler one later!
