Question 1

How to install RHSideButtons without CocoaPods?

Accepted Answer

You can manually copy the RHSideButtons folder to your Xcode project, but this approach is less maintainable and might require handling dependencies or updates yourself compared to using a package manager.

Question 2

RHSideButtons vs native UIButton for a FAB on iOS?

Accepted Answer

RHSideButtons provides a pre-built Material Design FAB with side menu functionality, saving time over crafting a custom solution with UIButton. However, if you need strict iOS design compliance or simpler interactions, a native UIButton might be more appropriate.

Question 3

How to add custom animations to RHSideButtons?

Accepted Answer

The library offers basic visual feedback via shadow and image states, but for advanced animations, you'd need to extend or modify the source code, as the README doesn't mention built-in animation support beyond the default behavior.

Question 4

Does RHSideButtons work with SwiftUI?

Accepted Answer

No, RHSideButtons is built for UIKit and doesn't have native SwiftUI support. You would need to wrap it in a UIViewRepresentable for use in SwiftUI projects, which adds complexity.

Question 5

Is RHSideButtons still maintained or updated?

Accepted Answer

Based on the README's Swift version table showing support only up to Swift 4.0, it appears the project may not be actively maintained for newer iOS versions, so check the GitHub repository for recent activity before relying on it.

Question 6

How to handle button tap events in RHSideButtons?

Accepted Answer

Implement the RHSideButtonsDelegate method sideButtons(sideButtons:didSelectButtonAtIndex:), which provides the index of the tapped button, allowing you to define custom actions similar to UITableView delegate patterns.
