Chat ViewController for Tabbed View iOS application - Objective-C iOS9

Project Name: Chat ViewController for Tabbed View iOS application Skills related to the Project: Mobile Phone, iPhone, Objective-C, SaaS Backend See attached file for details. Describe the Project in Detail: This project is on a tight deadline! -- Only accept it if you are confident that you can finish all work by October 12, EOD Central European Time. This project’s aim is to build a ViewController that will be integrated into an existing, tabbed iPhone application. This ViewController is intended to allow the user to chat with contacts that are specified by the greater application. For ease of development, you can build this view in a standalone xcode project and don’t need to worry about the rest of the app. Please just exactly observe the spacings in the mockups (the turquoise bars at the bottom and the top) which act as placeholders. For the backend, you should use the [login to view URL] Backend as a Service. You can find a sample app by Quickblox here from which you should be able to port a lot of code. The app should be written in Objective-C. The app should be written for iOS9. The layout should be done with Auto Layout so that the app scales to both iPhone 5s and iPhone 6 screen sizes. Initial Remarks This app is not intended for a production environment, so functionality such as adding new contacts etc. is not a priority. The main goal is to show the communication between the app and a chat webinterface (that we are building separately) using the Quickblox backend. The overall app already has a User model, so we would store any information needed to authenticate with Quickblox in there. You do not need to worry about handling that, just store it in a reasonable way, and we will handle integration of that into the overall app. As for the mockups, we will provide the underlying PSD files once we have reached an agreement. COMPLETION: - BY October 12, EOD Central European Time. - In order for us to accept the work, you must demonstrate that the chat works between the iOS app and a web endpoint for Quickblox (for instance using [login to view URL] )
