How to style uitableview to create pretty menu - ios

I've been working on app, that has side-menu. I've been inspired by other apps, and I want my menu to look similar to theirs. Here are some examples (steam app menu, fb menu)
Basically my question is, what kind of outlets are used in this menu? My first thought was, that those are tableviews with sections and static cells. However, even if they are tableviews, I've got no idea how to style my tableview that way. All I came up with, was this crappy design :D
I would be very glad, if someone could show me right way :) Thank you guys

There are alot of similar open source controls available.
Please check the below links:
SASlidemenu
JWSlidemenu
CHSlidecontroller
NVSlidemenucontroller
DDMenucontroller

You look on the right path. Unfortunately it is simply down to design aspects and the assets you use.
This project recreates the menu in a very similar way to Facebook's.

Which Controls do I have to choose in iOS development

an iOS app page, which descirbes some item's detail
This is kind of what I want to make
This is exact what I want
Actually I am not an iOS developer.
But a member of our team lacks of knowledge of consisting of iOS app Page(Scene)
I think he usually use table view all the time. which I guess he can't handle very well.
He always struggle about height of UITableView in dynamic pages.
As you see in the picture, page has two views, which I don't know how to call it.
If round button on the right side of a woman is pressed those two views switches.
I guess it's kind of "TAB".
Is it normal that using UITableView in this kind of page. or Which is best practise?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.
The first image can be made using a UITableView or UICollectionView(UITableView will do the job with lesser hassle). For second image, you'd wanna use a segmented control.
The third can be built using UICollectionView, however, there are plenty of third party libraries out there on github for the same and you might wanna check them out.
Last but not the least, have some faith in your developer. He seems to be a newbie if he's facing troubles with tableviews but believe me, we've all been there some day.Encourage him to ask questions on various communities. If he's curious enough, he'll be just fine after a while.

Push a side view controller

I am a bit new in iOS programming. I want to add view controllers in side view when click on the menu button as many apps already have. I searched in net and found 2 APIs one is PPReavealSideViewController and other is SWReavelSideController. but i don't know how to use. I downloaded the Sample project of PPReavealSideViewController but it is showing many errors. please help me I have many questions in my mind..
Which one is better to use PPReavealSideViewController or SWReavelSideController?
Is there any other way to achieve my target??
I am uplaoding a image, please help me
I would suggest to use step-by-step tutorial:

PPReavealSideViewController or SWReavelSideController are good but always nice to do it yourself

ios: How to implement navigation of a slide out menu?

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.

Master detail view using a UITableView in the detail section (iPad)

I'm all new to iOS coding, and wanted a small project to learn the language.
My wife asked me to make an app she could use for her work.
I have been looking into the Master/Detail template on iOS and this is something I want to continue with.
Searched the web and looked at a lot of tutorials and comments in this forum, but I have not been able to find anything on how to use this template the way I would like it.
When I click the master section it should then in the detail section load a UITableView with all the properties for selected Item. (A bit like the Settings app on the iPad). If I then select and item in the detail section is should load a new view where I can change the selected property.
If anyone would could give a hint on this, it would be really appreciated.
Try starting with the default master/detail template built into xcode. You can set it for iphone, ipad or universal (both). I am working my way through a similar question.
Good luck and keep asking good questions here ... the developers here are really great.

Photo Gallery like table iOS

I am in the process of designing an application that will look like the image below. I am wondering if there is anything out there that will help me create this style of a table. I have seen three20 and other sources. I already figured out how to load images from the website I need, using JSON, now I need to put it into that view style. . It looks like it may be a basic gallery layout, but I am not sure where the best place to start may be.

EDIT: Thanks guys, this ended up being quite helpful as well: http://www.scott-sherwood.com/ios-6-uicollectionviewcontroller/
Try to check UICollectionView https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/WindowsViews/Conceptual/CollectionViewPGforIOS/Introduction/Introduction.html
Have a look at UICollectionView. It's perfect for that sort of thing.
Ask again with specific questions if you have them.
The new UICollectionView framework is made for things like this, and it's really easy to use. The only downside to using a collection view is that it's only available on iOS 6+, so if you want backwards compatibility, you might want to look into third-party open source frameworks.
Here's a great tutorial on UICollectionViews to help you get started.
