(Yes, I have converted to the Church of Auto Layout, and I’m not looking back. It’s awesome. Ship one thing with it and it’ll become easy.)
It’s 2014. Interface Builder is good now. It makes Auto Layout usable without silly libraries. Please stop being afraid of it.

@SteveStreza I still struggle with auto-layout when doing animation; other than, that it is awesome. -
@mcflainez Change constants outside the animation block, call [self.view layoutIfNeeded] in the animation block.

@SteveStreza I really wish I understood Auto Layout. I can sometimes make it do what I want, but I can never reproduce that. -
@ws Start small. Build a stupidly easy view with it. Build up. This is not a system you will master overnight. -
@SteveStreza I still have a really hard time understanding the concepts. - Show more

@SteveStreza My life changed for the better the exact moment I realized you could hook IBOutlets to constraints - View other replies

@hooktail154@SteveStreza wait what -
@KyleHughes@hooktail154 YEP. Then you just set the constant, animate [self.view layoutIfNeeded], and everything is awesome. -
@SteveStreza god dammit jonas

@stevestreza for real and for true? -
.
@arcyn1c Yep. It’s not perfect for everything, but it can remove hundreds of lines of code from view controller subclasses. - Show more

@matthewmascioni Build the smallest possible thing with it and it’ll start to become clearer and easier. -

@stevestreza@colincornaby it still kinda sucks for localisation. I hope that changes soon :/ -
@notjosh@stevestreza This is true. I just use text in Nibs as placeholders, and then fill in the text in code. -
@colincornaby@notjosh This is what I do as well. -
@stevestreza@colincornaby oh yeah, same. it's just an extra hoop to jump through that I don't think we should -
@notjosh@stevestreza I’m doing a lot of reusable nibs these day so the text has to be dynamically updated anyway. -
@notjosh@stevestreza The real power of nibs is you can swap the UI but use the same class. Great for tables and collection views.
