Hacker News iOS Client

This is a Hacker News iOS client which I wrote some time ago.

It supports most of the things you would expect from a news client with some exceptions (posting stories and commenting is not supported currently), though I wanted to include many more features.

Unfortunately, I lost interest in the project, and I don't think I will work on it any time soon, so I'm open sourcing the code in case someone finds it usefull.
