Incomplete at this time; I'm still working on meeting technical requirements of the assignment.

Technical Requirements

• In TweetDetailViewController.swift:
  • Have an imageView that shows the user's profile image.
  • Have 2 labels for the Username and TweetText.
  • Create a View Feed button.
• When the View Feed button is clicked, the user should segue to a 3rd view controller that will show that user's timeline. The api url is "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=" but you will need to ensure that you pass in the username as a parameter to this url.
• Convert your UITableViewCell subclass(TweetCell) to use a Nib, so you can share the same cell for both the HomeTimelineViewController and the UserTimelineViewController.
• Import an image asset into the asset catalog with the appropriate corresponding image sizes.
• Implement a UITableViewHeaderView on your ViewController.swift that displays the image added to the asset catalog.

Stretch Goals

• Implement a SimpleCache class to check and see if an image you are about to download is already downloaded before doing a network call. If the image exists in the cache, use it, if not, fetch it from Twitter.
• Refactor your code to use a single TimelineViewController instead of having multiple view controllers doing the same thing presenting a tableView of tweets. This will allow you to create seemingly endless navigation when selecting individual tweets.
  • HINT: I would recommend first finding the similarities between the 2 viewControllers, then create a single subclass to manage the logic of these commonalities. Then, if needed, create another subclass from this that will handle the individual logic of the HomeTimelineViewController that will show the user's home timeline of tweets.

Selected user timeline is now functional.
