I'm quite new to iOS development and recently I saw several apps have nice tabs under navigation bar. Take the glassdoor app as an example, how are the new and all tabs in the image below implemented? I wasn't able to find anything like this in xcode object library. Is it a customized segmented control?
Edit: Thanks to the suggestion of using Cocoa control. This open source project seems to accomplish what I'm looking for.
you can find a lot of custom controls just search with segmented
https://www.cocoacontrols.com
As far as I know you have two options, either you use a segmented control/tab controller or you can implement a third party class to handle the tabs, third party classes generally subclass UITabBarController or segmented control. I have used this simple class to create tabs https://github.com/hollance/MHTabBarController; I also found this one https://github.com/dkhamsing/DKScrollingTabController. Is really easy to find this kind of controls on github or cocoacontrols

I've developed android app for a while, however I just started swift.
I'm going to develop an app which its android version have about 10~12 items in side bar drawer menu.
I want to know are there any best practice for iOS to have about 10 items on side bar drawers, using third party libraries or there are some other solution?
You can find many types of Side menu from cocoacontrols. According to your requirement, download any.
https://www.cocoacontrols.com/search?q=side+menu
If you need some 3rd party library for side menus, you can easily use some of these
SideMenu
SideMenuController
SlideMenuControllerSwift
to simply install them you can use CocoaPods (on this website you can also find other 3rd party libraries)
Anyway, my preferences are not to use these side/slide/hamburger menus and instead you should reorganize your app and you should rather think about UITabBarController
simple and easy to implement swift slideMenu (with custom UI)
AKSlideMenu
Hope this help

You can drag it into your project or customize this
One of my friends is building an app and needs some help implementing a slide-out menu, kinda like what Slack or GroupMe has. He asked me since I have some experience with C. I found this open-source code, but the guides attached are either outdated or use methods I can't, as the app doesn't have a storyboard.main and is written in C. I was hoping someone either help me with using this without using Storyboard.main, or provide another implementation of the slide-out menu that I could incorporate into a C-built app.
You could try using a regular UIView for the menu and just have it offscreen until it is needed.
Try to use MMDrawerController library. It's very flexible in layout and easy for using.
So far I have been working with NavigationController. It's great for hierarchical navigation.
But, how do I implement a slide out menu that exists on every page, and is able to jump to any page?
Not caring about the design, I guess we would need to load/unload xib files manually to the superview?
Is this a good practice?
Probably the best way to get you going is to implement/check some of the already developed open source solutions.
Please, check out:
MMDrawerController which is a simpler version
and MSDynamicsDrawerViewController which is a bit more complicated (to develop) because it uses iOS 7 Dynamics.
Cheers.
1. How to Create a Slide-Out Navigation Panel in ios
One of the best sliding panels, that also supports UIKit Dynamics was created by Eric Horacek and it is called MSDynamicsDrawerViewController. It is available on GitHub.
There are many other open source libraries available online. Pick the one that suits your needs the best.
MasterDetailController
CCKFNavDrawer
GHSidebarNav
MFSideMenu
ADSlidingViewController
YASlidingViewController
ECSlidingViewController
DDSlidingPanels
MSSlidingPanelController
All you have to do, is read the documentation and embed the library in your project.
Its not a difficult thing to create that. there is a lot of source code available on git. you can use SWRevealViewController
REFrostedViewController
or you can follow this tutorial
Create Facebook like navigation,
ios-Slide Out Navigation
Itisn't a hard task once i found this tutorial, there are various other methods too followed as in Dribble. But the easiest method is to follow this tutorial.

Thanks to APPCODA..
First of all, I am using XCode 4.2 and I am not using storyboards. I need to make an application with 2 views.
First view will contain a button and a navigation bar, the button's IBAction should only go to the second view, and from the secondview you should be able to go back to the first view via the Navigationbar.
My problem is the navigation controller / navigation bar, how do I set that up ?
I know that it would be smart using the singleView app and then add a navigation controller, the problem is that I dont know how to set it up in the code.
I have searched for similar problems on the internet, and I keep getting into posts where they use another SDK or using an older xcode etc.
What I do know is how to make the button, actions and delegation.
Anyone out there who is sitting with the one and only tutorial I am missing or can tell me how to do it ?
Thank you
Use the Master-Detail Application template. Ignore the stuff for tables, it has navigation stack implemented in it. By deleting the tables, you should be pretty much left with what you are after.
You should go to http://developer.apple.com/, search for UINavigationController, click on UINavigationController Class Reference, then look at one of the linked sample code projects there.
if you really want to learn how to implement it from scratch (and not depend on the master-detail template), i highly recommend the following resources:
the apple documentation on UINavigationController
the solutions from the big nerd ranch iOS Programming guide (particularly the Homepwner example)
also found this tutorial in a quick google search, but haven't fully vetted it in xcode 4.2 (there will likely be small differences in how you have to go through the steps).
