I am in a process of learning ios development. I am beginning to learn storyboards and i found out that its only IOS 5 compatible. I searched here and found some answers but i wanted to find out if it make sense at this point to use storyboards. How does application behave that requires 5.0 in the app store? Does it show up for people that have 4.3 and lower? When i look through new application i don’t see any that says 5.0 required in the description. Does that mean most people do not use storyboards to develop apps yet?
Thanks in advance!
story board is available in SDK 4.2 with which you can build for iOS 5, you can certainly set your deployment target to 4.x and it will work like a charm..!!
Updated : as @FirozeLafeer told, I confirmed my knowledge that he is right – XCode displays a message that “storyboards are unavailable on iOS 4.3 or prior”
From Apple:
Storyboards are supported in iOS 5 and later and are enabled by default for new projects. If your app must run on earlier versions of iOS, though, you cannot use storyboards and should continue to use nib files.Source: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/iphone/conceptual/iphoneosprogrammingguide/AppDesignBasics/AppDesignBasics.html
