UIView and UIViewController
Understand the lifecycle and responsibilities of UIView and UIViewController, the building blocks of iOS interfaces.
Introduction to iOS UI
Welcome to building iOS interfaces! Every visual element you see in an iOS app, from buttons to entire screens, is built using two core components: UIView and UIViewController.
These are the fundamental building blocks that allow you to display content and manage user interactions in your Objective-C applications.
What is a UIView?
A UIView is the basic rectangular region that draws content and handles events on the screen. Think of it as a canvas where you can draw shapes, display text, or show images.
- It's the base class for all visual elements.
- It defines the content's position, size, and appearance.
- It can contain other views, creating a view hierarchy.
