Where to Go From Here?
You can download the final project using the Download Materials button at the top or bottom of this tutorial.
In this tutorial you learned how to create a brand new UICollectionView, specify a layout, connect its data source to a remote API, and even create a custom UICollectionViewCell that shows an image.
You only scratched the surface of what’s possible with UICollectionView, but there’s more! Check out UICollectionView: Reusable Views Selection Reordering . It enhances the app you built by teaching you how to:
- Add custom headers to collection views.
- Easily move cells by dragging them.
- Implement single cell selection to bring up a detail view.
- Implement multi-cell selection.
