point of UIViewController in IB

Question

What exactly is the point of adding a UIViewController in IB? There is no way to add code like you can if you create a viewController in Xcode? And if you can what is the advantage of doing it in IB.

And isn't the whole point of a MVC to seperate code into "modular" parts so why would add a ViewController in IB

Answer 1

Sometimes all you need is a UIViewController. But most times you would create a UIViewController subclass of your own (in IB).
