How can I get careViewController to be accessed when clicking on a tab?

[reetm09]

I've been trying to find documentation on how to make the care view controller show up on a tab but can't find any, the only way i can do it is to present which is not efficient and the other way I do it, the navigation bar on the top doesn't show up. Where and how can I get careView to show up when I click on a tab bar button?

Thanks!

You should be able to put the care view controller into a UITabBarController just as you would with any other iOS view controller.

For our sample app, you would tweak the code in SceneDelegate.swift to look like this.

func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {

    let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
    let manager = appDelegate.synchronizedStoreManager

    let careViewController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: CareViewController(storeManager: manager))
    careViewController.tabBarItem = UITabBarItem(title: "Care", image: UIImage(systemName: "heart.circle")!, tag: 0)

    let otherViewController = UIViewController()
    otherViewController.tabBarItem = UITabBarItem(title: "Other", image: UIImage(systemName: "bandage")!, tag: 1)

    let tabController = UITabBarController()
    tabController.setViewControllers([careViewController, otherViewController], animated: false)

    if let windowScene = scene as? UIWindowScene {
        window = UIWindow(windowScene: windowScene)
        window?.rootViewController = tabController
        window?.tintColor = UIColor { $0.userInterfaceStyle == .light ? #colorLiteral(red: 0.9960784314, green: 0.3725490196, blue: 0.368627451, alpha: 1) : #colorLiteral(red: 0.8627432641, green: 0.2630574384, blue: 0.2592858295, alpha: 1) }
        window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
    }
}
