Impacts your life
Wife: “Honey are you still working with that auto layout
thing?”
Wife: “Honey are you still working with that auto layout

Wife: “Honey are you still working with that auto layout
thing?” Me: “Yeah, how do you know?” Wife: “Because I am hearing more ‘f*ck’ and ‘sh!t’ than usual”.
You DON’T setFrame: anymore
You DON’T setFrame: anymore You DECLARE a layout
You express relations between elements

ax + by = c 2x + 2y = 4
Linear equations

=> [x = 1, y = 1] Linear equations
ax + by = c 2x + 2y = 4
=> [x = 1, y = 1] 2(x+5)-7 = 3(x-2) Linear equations
ax + by = c 2x + 2y = 4

Likes one solution scenarios Multiple solutions => ambiguous layout No

NSLayoutConstraint

DON’T think in terms of frames
