I'm new in iOS development and I'm just following some tutorials on youtube, I'm confused between page based application template and view based application template. I'm using xcode 4.6 and the tutorial I'm following has page based application using xcode 4.0 using a view based application. Xcode 4.6 has no view based application.
What are the difference of page base application and view based application in Xcode? Are they the same?
Page based application and view based applications are just templates only that makes your job a little bit easier. Depending upon your template selection Xcode will automatically generate some files and use some controls. It is not necessary to start with such kind of template you can even start with an empty application . There you are designing from scratch. You can choose a template based on type of your application.
Inorder to find the difference just create applications using both templates and run it. Page based application uses pageViewController that switches pages while swiping just like turn pages of a book. single view application creates a single view controller and its view. If you choose single single view application initially dont worry. Add pageViewController and design properly, you can make it as a Page based application
