FrameLayoutKit

FrameLayout is a super fast and easy to use layout library for iOS and tvOS.

For Objective-C version: NKFrameLayoutKit (Deprecated, not recommended)

Why?

Say NO to autolayout constraint nightmare:

Example

To run the example project, clone the repo, and run pod install from the Example directory first.

Installation

FrameLayoutKit is available through Swift Package Manager (Recommended) and CocoaPods:

pod "FrameLayoutKit"

Example

This is how FrameLayoutKit layout the card view below:

let frameLayout = HStackLayout {
  $0.add(VStackLayout {
    $0.add(earthImageView).alignment = (.top, .center)
    $0.addSpace().flexible()
    $0.add(rocketImageView).alignment = (.center, .center)
  })
		
  $0.add(VStackLayout {
    $0.add([nameLabel, dateLabel])
    $0.addSpace(10)
    $0.add(messageLabel)
    $0.spacing = 5.0
  })

  $0.spacing = 15.0
  $0.padding(top: 15, left: 15, bottom: 15, right: 15)
  $0.debug = true
}

Or you can use operand syntax for shorter/cleaner code:

let frameLayout = StackFrameLayout(axis: .horizontal)
frameLayout + VStackLayout {
	($0 + earthImageView).alignment = (.top, .center)
	($0 + 0).flexible() // add a flexible space
	($0 + rocketImageView).alignment = (.center, .center)
}
frameLayout + VStackLayout {
	$0 + [nameLabel, dateLabel] // add an array of views
	$0 + 10 // add space with 10 px fixed
	$0 + messageLabel // add a single view
	$0.spacing = 5.0 // spacing between views
}

frameLayout.spacing = 15.0
frameLayout.padding(top: 15, left: 15, bottom: 15, right: 15)
frameLayout.debug = true // show debug frame
}

Benchmark

FrameLayoutKit is one of the fastest layout libraries.
