XIBs and programatic layout is the Vim vs Emacs of the iOS world.

To me that implies that one essentially makes the other redundant but I prefer to see them as two powerful tools in my box that each have their uses. I've always thought the people that insist on doing everything in xibs were a little weird but going too far the other way doesn't make sense to me either.




You're right, it's a pretty bad analogy! I was more going for the whole NIB/Code debate being something that's never going to be adequately resolved.
