DropDownMenuKit

DropDownMenuKit is a custom UIKit control to show a menu attached to the navigation bar or toolbar. The menu appears with a sliding animation and can be deeply customized. For example, with icons, embedded controls, or a checkmark to denote a selected row among multiple menu cells.

The control is made up of three parts:

• DropDownMenu: the menu itself, a UIView subclass that contains a UITableView presenting one or more DropDownMenuCell(s)
• DropDownMenuCell: a menu entry, implemented as a UITableViewCell subclass
• DropDownMenuTitleView: an optional title view to toggle the menu, which is usually put in the navigation bar and acts as a disclosure indicator

To see in action, take a look at the very beginning of Placeboard demo video.

Compatibility

DropDownMenuKit requires at least Xcode 10.2 (introducing Swift 5) and supports iOS 11 and higher.

For versions compatible with Swift 3 and 4, see branches named swift-3/4.x.

For now, the code base remains compatible with older iOS versions (8 or higher), but these older versions are not supported anymore.
