A Swift demo project implementing Pinterest-like zoom transitions for iOS collection views.
PinterestSwift is a demonstration iOS project that shows how to implement Pinterest-like zoom transition animations in Swift. It recreates the smooth animation effect when users tap on items in a waterfall layout collection view, transitioning to a detail view controller with visual continuity. The project serves as an educational resource for iOS developers looking to add polished transition animations to their apps.
iOS developers working with UIKit and CollectionViews who want to implement sophisticated transition animations, particularly those creating social media, gallery, or e-commerce applications with Pinterest-style interfaces.
Developers choose PinterestSwift because it provides a complete, working implementation of a complex UI interaction pattern with clean Swift code, saving time compared to building similar transitions from scratch. It demonstrates best practices for custom transitions while being focused on a single, well-executed feature.
This is a Swift based demo project to show how to make the transition Pinterest liked.

The README includes GIFs showing the exact Pinterest-like zoom transition, making it easy to visualize the effect before implementation.
Provides a clean Swift 5.0 implementation focused on teaching custom view controller transitions, as stated in its philosophy.
Uses CHTCollectionViewWaterfallLayout to create realistic Pinterest-style grids, offering context for the transition animation.
As a demonstration project, it lacks production-ready features like comprehensive error handling or support for different iOS versions beyond Xcode 11.
Relies on CHTCollectionViewWaterfallLayout, which may require maintenance updates and adds complexity to project setup.
The README is brief with no detailed API documentation or setup instructions, leaving developers to infer integration steps from the code.
