Build an App Like Lego — Tutorial 9

Xib Layout in a Storyboard

1. Introduction

In this Tutorial 9 we’re going to use the custom NewsTableViewCell xib layout (which we created in Tutorial 7) in our storyboard. This is a simple process, using the BFWControls.framework (which we added in Tutorial 8). Along the way, we will also learn about classes and subclasses, how to change a superclass and connect outlets.

2. Clone the Project

If you’re continuing on from the previous Tutorial 8, then you have everything you need. Skip to step 3.

If you want to start fresh with this tutorial, you can download the project by following these steps:
