Where To Go From Here?
Here is a example project with all of the code from the above tutorial.
Congratulations, you now know the basics of using the Storyboard Editor, and can create apps with multiple view controllers transitioning between each other with segues!
If you want to learn more about Storyboards in iOS 5, check out our new book iOS 5 By Tutorials. It includes another entire chapter on “Intermediate Storyboards” where we cover:
- How to change the PlayerDetailsViewController so that it can also edit existing Player objects.
- How to have multiple outgoing segues to other scenes, and how to make your view controllers re-usable so they can handle multiple incoming segues.
- How to perform segues from disclosure buttons, gestures, and any other event you can think of.
- How to make custom segues – you don’t have to be limited to the standard Push and Modal animations!
- How to use storyboards on the iPad, with a split-view controller and popovers.
- And finally, how to manually load storyboards and using more than one storyboard inside an app.
