Arguably one of the most powerful features of Xcode storyboards involves the implementation of table views through the concept of prototype table cells. This allows the developer to visually design the user interface elements that will appear in a table cell (such as labels, images etc) and then replicate that prototype cell on demand within the table view of the running application. Prior to the introduction of Storyboards, this would have involved a considerable amount of coding work combined with trial and error.
The objective of this chapter is to work through a detailed example designed to demonstrate dynamic table view creation within a storyboard using table view prototype cells. Once this topic has been covered, the next chapter (entitled [[Implementing iOS 7 TableView Navigation using Storyboards in Xcode 5]]) will explore the implementation of table view navigation and the passing of data between scenes using storyboards.
