Joey Banks introduced the new version of his iOS 16 UI Kit just a few days after WWDC 2022. Joey’s kits are fantastic resources for making iOS apps and learning about the organization of a large system. This year, he is also offering a paid version that includes exactly the same files, but by purchasing you’ll support the project and receive library updates and video walkthroughs.

Joey Banks on component properties: ​“In the past few weeks, I’ve had the chance to become more comfortable creating components that contain component properties. What has helped me the most has been to think of this new feature as an additional way, not a separate way, to further organize and create components and variants that scale with the library and system.”
