" summary

Claims that using Realm makes the local database the source of truth and lets the UI react to realtime changes. Demo is an AR leaderboard demo that writes scores to Realm, fires background sync calls to an API, survives a killed server and keeps gameplay working offline, and handles many live updates on the main thread with acceptable performance. Caveats include nontrivial refactor/migration effort, noisy callbacks from nested objects, and lack of support for storing NSDictionary-style properties.
