Today was time I wasted entirely on developing and implementing a splash screen which fades out to a log in page. While constituting a “bell and whistle” in absence of the actual vehicle, it is an nice place to start, and has given me some ideas as to my future steps for developing application.
Log in form for the iCensrI had come across the idea of setting up a splash page earlier on while researching for my class, Little Computers. I discovered a delightfully handy blog, iCodeBlog, which is absolutely chock full of tutorials of the the Objective-C ilk. Thus, when deciding what to accomplish today, I decided to do as the White Rabbit and “Begin at the beginning and go on till [I] come to the end: then stop.” As the very first thing any user would see in this application would be the splash screen, it seemed that that, too, would be where I started.
Thus, following iCodeBlog’s splash screen tutorial, I threw together a placeholder splash screen, the first draft of the sign in page, and tied it all together with a little fade out and in action. You can see the code and assets in my github repository.
