# ProMotion [![Gem Version](https://img.shields.io/gem/v/ProMotion.svg?style=flat)](https://rubygems.org/gems/ProMotion) [![Build Status](https://img.shields.io/travis/infinitered/ProMotion.svg?style=flat)](https://travis-ci.org/infinitered/ProMotion) [![Code Climate](https://img.shields.io/codeclimate/github/infinitered/ProMotion.svg?style=flat)](https://codeclimate.com/github/infinitered/ProMotion) ## iPhone Apps, Ruby-style ProMotion is a RubyMotion gem that makes iOS development more like Ruby and less like Objective-C. It introduces a clean, Ruby-style syntax for building screens that is easy to learn and remember and abstracts a ton of boilerplate UIViewController, UINavigationController, and other iOS code into a simple, Ruby-like DSL. ```ruby # app/app_delegate.rb class AppDelegate < PM::Delegate status_bar true, animation: :fade def on_load(app, options) open RootScreen end end # app/screens/root_screen.rb class RootScreen < PM::Screen title "Root Screen" nav_bar true def on_load set_nav_bar_button :right, title: "Help", action: :open_help_screen end def open_help_screen open HelpScreen end end # app/screens/help_screen.rb class HelpScreen < PM::TableScreen title "Table Screen" def table_data [{ title: "Help", cells: [ { title: "About this app", action: :tapped_about }, { title: "Log out", action: :log_out } ] }] end def tapped_about(args={}) open AboutScreen end def log_out # Log out! end end ``` # Features |Screens|Navigation Bars|Tab Bars| |---|---|---| |[![ProMotion Screen](https://f.cloud.github.com/assets/1479215/1534021/060aaaac-4c8f-11e3-903c-743e54252222.png)](http://promotion.readthedocs.org/en/master/Reference/ProMotion%20Screen/)|[![ProMotion Nav Bar](https://f.cloud.github.com/assets/1479215/1534077/db39aab6-4c8f-11e3-83f7-e03d52ac615d.png)](http://promotion.readthedocs.org/en/master/Reference/ProMotion%20Screen/#set_nav_bar_buttonside-args)|[![ProMotion Tabs](https://f.cloud.github.com/assets/1479215/1534115/9f4c4cd8-4c90-11e3-9285-96ac253facda.png)](http://promotion.readthedocs.org/en/master/Reference/ProMotion%20Tabs/)| |Table Screens|Grouped Tables|Searchable|Refreshable| |---|---|---|---| |[![ProMotion TableScreen](https://f.cloud.github.com/assets/1479215/1534137/ed71e864-4c90-11e3-98aa-ed96049f5407.png)](http://promotion.readthedocs.org/en/master/Reference/ProMotion%20TableScreen/)|[![Grouped Table Screen](https://f.cloud.github.com/assets/1479215/1589973/61a48610-5281-11e3-85ac-abee99bf73ad.png)](https://gist.github.com/jamonholmgren/382a6cf9963c5f0b2248)|[![Searchable](https://f.cloud.github.com/assets/1479215/1534299/20cc05c6-4c93-11e3-92ca-9ee39c044457.png)](http://promotion.readthedocs.org/en/master/Reference/ProMotion%20TableScreen/#searchableplaceholder-placeholder-text)|[![Refreshable](https://f.cloud.github.com/assets/1479215/1534317/5a14ef28-4c93-11e3-8e9e-f8c08d8464f8.png)](http://promotion.readthedocs.org/en/master/Reference/ProMotion%20TableScreen/#refreshableoptions)| |SplitScreens|Map Screens|Web Screens| |---|---|---| |[![ProMotion SplitScreens](https://f.cloud.github.com/assets/1479215/1534507/0edb8dd4-4c96-11e3-9896-d4583d0ed161.png)](http://promotion.readthedocs.org/en/master/Reference/ProMotion%20SplitScreen/)|[![MapScreen](https://f.cloud.github.com/assets/1479215/1534628/f7dbf7e8-4c97-11e3-8817-4c2a58824771.png)](http://promotion.readthedocs.org/en/master/Reference/ProMotion%20MapScreen/)|[![ProMotion WebScreen](https://f.cloud.github.com/assets/1479215/1534631/ffe1b36a-4c97-11e3-8c8f-c7b14e26182d.png)](http://promotion.readthedocs.org/en/master/Reference/ProMotion%20WebScreen/)| **NEW** [Live reloading!](http://promotion.readthedocs.org/en/master/Guides/Live Screen Reloading/) Use `pm_live` to enable it, and `on_live_reload` in your screen to refresh things. #### ...and much more. # Getting Started 1.
