Evolve: A View-based Storyboard Application

Once again, you will work with images that let you know where in the story you are. In more technical terms, you will use images rather than code to represent a state in your app. I encourage my students to use images because, if it does not work, then youknow it's a bug in the high-level code that directs the user from state to state—not a bug in the code for a particular state.

In this app, you will see a funny set of states that show the state of a male, a female, and the other kind of human being—geeks. It will also show that when a man or a woman evolves into a higher state of consciousness they become geeks! Then, to add another state, for fun and to illustrate the purpose, it will be shown that when a geek evolves they become anÜber Geek! As funny as this is, it simply gives us a nice set of diverse states that, in storyboarding, will be easy, but that in the old one-at-a-time nib manipulation would have been substantially more complex.
