Where to Go From Here
To see the completed project, download BookShop-completed.zip.
This tutorial covered quite a bit! You know how to:
- Align views in your UI by bundling them in stacks
- Design complex layouts with nested stack views
- Use constraints to customize stack layouts
- And finally, how to interact with the arranged subviews
If you’d like to learn more about stack views and how to use them for fun and profit, consider the following resources:
- Apple’s NSStackView docs: Here you’ll discover more about this class’s properties and methods.
-
Mysteries of Auto Layout, part 1: In this WWDC ’15 talk you’ll learn about the motivation behind stack views and see some live demos.
- Finally, watch the UIStackView video series right here because most of the concepts on iOS and OS X are the same.
