Have you noticed how much this is similar to CSS Flexbox? If you don't know flex box, it's the way web developers are doing layout if they don't need to support Internet Explorer 8 or older. For a brief tutorial: http://www.flexboxin5.com

Flex box is so amazing that Facebook created a way of rendering this spec in iOS and Android: https://github.com/facebook...

Not only that, but this is also a tent-poole for the creation of React Native: https://facebook.github.io/...

I didn't pay a lot of attention to WWDC talks, but for me this is huge. UIStackView is so similar to flex-box. This remembers me of Andy Matuschak comment when React Native was announced:

For me this shows that Apple is acknowledging external influences to improve UIKit itself.

Hi,
why do you add a "equal width" constraint to the 4 views in the nested stack view? Would setting distribution property to "Fill equally" be enough?

I was just showing that you can add your own constraints to work with stack views as well.

Hi Ben,
Great tutorial, thank you.
One thing personally for me, I think you should not show you swallow while making the tutorials ;)
