Adding a storyboard to existing code - ios

I was wondering how I would be able to add a story board to an existing code?
I have experience in c++, c and java and I wanted to try programming an App.
On github I saw a project that I wanted to implement onto mine which is a side navigation.
(https://github.com/twotoasters/TWTSideMenuViewController)
This project didn't have a storyboard so I was wondering if it was possible to add one and see exactly what it shows on the iphone simulator. Thanks in advance. (new to xcode/ object c trying to teach myself)

Right click the project
New File -> User Interface -> Story Board

Dragging and dropping not working in Xcode

I'm working on my first Swift project in Xcode and am running into trouble with dragging and dropping elements from the storyboard into the code.
Nothing happens when I try dragging and dropping. I'm running the newest version of Xcode and using Swift.
The class is ViewController and the file is ViewController.swift
I'm trying to drag and drop a textfield into the class.
I have a question and possible solution for you, Sam.
What system are you using to do this? When I first started I wanted to use a mac over a remote connection and I found that holding control and dragging yielded me no blue line to associate the Interface Builder items with the assistant editor's code. I tried Chrome remote desktop, splash top, and VNC viewer. Nothing yielded the results I was looking for. Only when I got my own mac and was working with the machine itself was I able to control-click-and-drag to associate Interface Builder items with code.
Also, are you using the assistant editor or dragging into the file in the navigator on the left? I haven't tried the latter... only ever used the assistant editor.
Hope that helps!
You need to first change the class of the ViewController in the Storyboard to match the class of file that you are dropping into. Click the dropdown menu and choose your own viewcontroller class.
I'd suggest to rename your own viewcontroller class to differentiate it from iOS build-in class. Otherwise you might get confused while selecting the class.
May be you already solve. but it may help some one else. for Xcode-10 you will go
editor -> Localization Locking -> Reset Locking Controls
it help me to enable dragging and dropping the element.
You drag and drop into the Storyboard (Main.storyboard is the default name).
You cannot drag and drop inside a .swift file.
When your UI is complete, you need to "bind" the storyboard scene with the UIViewController (or any subclass) in the Identity Inspector (check this)

How do I implement a left view controller in an iOS app?

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.

SlideMenu Like Facebook Without Using Storyboard

I'm currently working on a project that is being developed without using a single XIB and it is a huge project. We are gonna release a new version by changing the user interface. It require for me to build a Slider Menu like we find in facebook app. I have plenty of sample coding which do it and every project uses Storyboard to set it up. My question is,
Is it possible to develop that without using Storyboard?
Thanks.

This is one of the best slide menu example code I have used.

On an iPad, how to create a left side menu to let the contents displayed at the centre according to the item tapped on the menu

I am very new to iOS development. Currently, I am trying to develop an iPad app, which is used for taking orders in a restaurant. When I am trying to create the UI on an iPad, I want to create a left side menu to let the contents displayed at the centre according to the item tapped on the menu. Which is similar to this: http://www.dhtmlx.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/ipad_menu_final.jpg
As I am very new to the iOS development, can anybody tell me where I can learn iOS development step by step. And are they any samples of this kind of app that I can refer to?
Thanks very much!
there are many tutorials for creating split view application as links provided by #PratyushaTerli and otherwise you can use direect way as recommended by #antonio MG and there is another two good links for creating them which are : https://github.com/mikefrederick/MFSideMenu (good demos in it using story board or using xib's ) and you can look on project on github named - mmdrawercontroller.
annother good project is this
As Antonio MG said, the easiest way to do this is with Master/Detail project in Xcode. It uses the UISplitViewController logic of one 'Master' controller which controls the appearance of detail content in the 'Slave' or 'Detail' controller aside.
The sample Xcode project should be enough to make you understand how UISplitViewController and its UISplitViewControllerDelegate work together. Or also checkout this tutorial: http://www.raywenderlich.com/1040/ipad-for-iphone-developers-101-uisplitview-tutorial
Just create a Master/Detail project and you will have the basic structure of that kind of behaviour. The rest is just customising the table and the cells.

Is there a resources where we can learn how to modify a program that doesn't use storyboard to use storyboard

Starting in iOs 5, we have this new feature called story board. Also the whole concept of viewController change.
Usually we created story board by making new project and voila, iOS set everything up.
Say I have a project that didn't use story board. Say I want it to use storyboard.
What kind of change I should make?
What are the best URLs or e-Book to learn more about using this storyboard and the new viewController paradigm?
