iOS views and controls with source code and demo


I'm looking for a bundle of demos with source codes to help me understand the apple technologies.

For Flash/Flex there is a very nice Flex app that showcases all the Containers/Controls and shows inline source code.
For Android, there is ApiDemos sample project + a lot more demos which come with the Android SDK. You can test them, preview them, change the source code etc...

I wonder whether there is something similar for iOS that I missed? It will be very helpful to me.
I know there are examples in the developer.apple.com, as well as github repos and tutorials over the internet. Is there something bundled with many demos using as little code as possible just to demonstrate quickly how a control is used? Something similar to the mentioned "Tour de Flex" and the Android SDK samples app?
Thank you in advance!


Solution

  • The best thing I have found for this is the UICatalog project from Apple themselves. It showcases quite a lot of the standard UI components and how to use them.

    Of course, there are a lot of tutorials that deal with more specific things and custom things, but the best place to start is with the basics. You can expand from there.
