Dependency Injection is when you give an object what it needs, rather than it creating those objects itself. In this video I show you a basic example using the Chipotle App as an example. And then I help you answer the common iOS Dev interview questions asking why would you use dependency injection in Swift and what are the benefits.

This tutorial was created using Xcode 14 and iOS 16.
