Adjusting saturation and applying tone mapping

At a glance

Item	Summary
Purpose	Convert an RGB image to discrete luminance and chrominance channels, and apply color and contrast treatments.
App architecture	A Swift sample with the source-visible chain `YpCbCrAdjustmentApp` → `ContentView` → `Accelerate APIs`.
Main patterns	SwiftUI environment injection, Publisher-backed observable state
Project style	3 scanned source file(s) across Swift, organized around ranked entry, type, and file boundaries.

Structure observations

Architecturally prominent files are ranked from entry points and role-named declarations; resource-only paths are omitted.
Primary languages: Swift.
The verified tree contains 6 project/configuration file(s) and 5 source declaration(s).

Reference code

yCbCrAdjustment/YpCbCrAdjustmentApp.swift:10 — architecture anchor

@main
struct YpCbCrAdjustmentApp: App {
    // ...
}

Interpretation

The arrows summarize the source-visible entry, role-named types or folders, and framework direction; when nodes come from structural folders, the sequence is a high-level interpretation rather than proof that every adjacent node calls the next. Ownership is claimed only where the next section cites a stored property or assignment. The diagram is intentionally limited to the dominant path into Accelerate.

Ownership and state

classDiagram
    YpCbCrAdjustmentApp *-- YpCbCrAdjustment : yCbCrAdjustment

    ContentView o-- NumberFormatter : formatter
    ContentView o-- Font : font

Ownership evidence

yCbCrAdjustment/YpCbCrAdjustmentApp.swift:13 — stored dependency or nearest verified ownership anchor

@main
struct YpCbCrAdjustmentApp: App {
    // ...
    @StateObject private var yCbCrAdjustment = YpCbCrAdjustment(image: #imageLiteral(resourceName: "Rainbow_1.png"))
    // ...
}

Owner	Object or state	Relationship	Mutation authority
`YpCbCrAdjustmentApp`	`YpCbCrAdjustment` (`yCbCrAdjustment`)	owns wrapper-managed state	Owning lexical scope
`ContentView`	`YpCbCrAdjustment` (`ycbcrAdjustment`)	receives environment-provided state	The environment provider is authoritative
`ContentView`	`NumberFormatter` (`formatter`)	stores or receives	Initialized by the owner; the binding is immutable
`ContentView`	`Font` (`font`)	stores or receives	Initialized by the owner; the binding is immutable

Composition arrows indicate a source-visible construction expression or locally owned value state; aggregation means the owner stores or receives a dependency without proving exclusive lifetime ownership.

Class and protocol design

yCbCrAdjustment/YpCbCrAdjustmentApp.swift:11 — representative type boundary

struct YpCbCrAdjustmentApp: App {
    // ...
}

Type	Responsibility	Depends on or conforms to
`YpCbCrAdjustmentApp`	Application entry and top-level composition	`App`
`ContentView`	User-interface presentation and input forwarding	`View`
`YpCbCrAdjustment`	Owns feature behavior and collaborator lifecycle	`ObservableObject`
`Yp8CbCr8PixelBuffers`	Represents a feature value or composable behavior	Concrete collaborators/imported frameworks
`Remap`	Defines a closed set of feature states or choices	Concrete collaborators/imported frameworks

No local protocol conformance is claimed as protocol-oriented design; external framework conformances are listed only as dependencies.

Access control

Symbol	Access	Verified effect	Likely rationale
`argbSource` (`yCbCrAdjustment/YpCbCrAdjustment.swift:47`)	`private`	Use is restricted to the lexical declaration and same-file extensions allowed by Swift.	Inference: keep state mutation or dependency lifetime inside the owning implementation.
`argbDestination` (`yCbCrAdjustment/YpCbCrAdjustment.swift:52`)	`private`	Use is restricted to the lexical declaration and same-file extensions allowed by Swift.	Inference: keep state mutation or dependency lifetime inside the owning implementation.
`gammaDestination` (`yCbCrAdjustment/YpCbCrAdjustment.swift:65`)	`private`	Use is restricted to the lexical declaration and same-file extensions allowed by Swift.	Inference: keep state mutation or dependency lifetime inside the owning implementation.
`reset` (`yCbCrAdjustment/YpCbCrAdjustment.swift:105`)	`public`	The symbol is visible to importing modules.	Inference: make the declaration available across a module or target boundary.

Reference code

yCbCrAdjustment/YpCbCrAdjustment.swift:47 — representative boundary

    private lazy var argbSource: vImage.PixelBuffer<vImage.Interleaved8x4> = {
        return try! vImage.PixelBuffer<vImage.Interleaved8x4>(cgImage: sourceCGImage,
                                                              cgImageFormat: &format)
    }()

Swift declarations without a modifier are internal; explicit private, fileprivate, private(set), public, or open entries above are interpreted by language semantics. Objective-C/C samples instead rely on header and implementation boundaries, which are not equivalent to Swift lexical privacy.

Logic ownership and placement

Logic	Owning type or file	Placement rationale
Application entry and top-level composition	`YpCbCrAdjustmentApp`	The source’s `App` suffix makes this role explicit.
User-interface presentation and input forwarding	`ContentView`	The source’s `View` suffix makes this role explicit.

Design patterns

Pattern	Source evidence	Purpose or tradeoff
SwiftUI environment injection	`yCbCrAdjustment/ContentView.swift:11`	The environment supplies state or a capability without threading it through every initializer.
Publisher-backed observable state	`yCbCrAdjustment/YpCbCrAdjustment.swift:16`	Published properties notify observers while mutation remains with the state object.

Naming conventions

Types: App: YpCbCrAdjustmentApp; View: ContentView.
Protocols: no local protocol declaration in the scanned source.
Methods: format, reset, applyAdjustment, applyGammaToLuma, applyLinearToCbCr, applyGammaToCbCr, convert, remap.
Files: yCbCrAdjustment/YpCbCrAdjustmentApp.swift, yCbCrAdjustment/ContentView.swift, yCbCrAdjustment/YpCbCrAdjustment.swift.

Architecture takeaways

YpCbCrAdjustmentApp is the main source-visible entry or composition anchor for this sample.
Framework work reaches SwiftUI, Accelerate, Cocoa through a deliberately small high-level chain; the detailed API graph remains inside the cited implementation files.
Stored-property evidence identifies lifecycle collaboration; it does not by itself prove exclusive object ownership.
Access-control conclusions separate verified language visibility from the likely design rationale.
The source does not justify labeling the design protocol-oriented.
