What is Interface Builder?

Interface Builder is a visual design tool within Xcode used for creating the user interfaces of macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS applications. It allows developers to design and lay out user interface elements like buttons, labels, text fields, and table views by dragging and dropping them onto a canvas. Interface Builder also facilitates connecting these UI elements to the underlying code through outlets and actions, enabling interactive functionality. It stores the UI design in `.xib` or `.storyboard` files.
