Day 2: Learn standard user interface from UI catalog

Environment

• OS X 10.11.1
• Xcode 7.1.1

There are many custom ui library in the world, or you create any ineterface. But I recommend for your first app, Use starndaru UI created by Apple.

The UI framework for iOS named UIKit, We can learn from the flollowing links:

Example

How to Run

1. Download Sample Code
2. Extract UIKitCatalogiOSCreatingandCustomizingUIKitControls.zip.
3. Open UIKitCatalogiOSCreatingandCustomizingUIKitControls/Swift/UIKitCatalog.xcodeproj.
4. Press Command + R.

As seen from the above, apple provides many internface parts in default. Maybe, it's enaough for your first app.

Example: Create a simple notes app

You can create a simple notes with standard parts.

Feature	UI parts
Manage views	UINavigationController
Notes list	UITableViewController, UITableView, UITableViewCell, UILabel
Show or edit note	UIViewController, UITextView

If you understand UIKit, you can create many app without unnecessary customizations. I recommend see all UI in calalog at least once.
