## What it is
DAKeyboardControl is an Objective-C iOS library that adds keyboard awareness and iMessages-style pan-to-dismiss behavior to any UIView, UIScrollView, or UITableView with a single line of code. It extends UIView with a block-based callback delivering the keyboard's current frame, handling orientation changes and iPad keyboard undocking/splitting.

## Use cases
- dismiss keyboard by dragging down like iMessages
- track keyboard frame changes in iOS views
- move UI elements when keyboard appears
- add above-keyboard input accessory view
- hide keyboard with one convenience call

## When to choose
- building an iOS chat or messaging app with a receding keyboard
- you need keyboard frame callbacks with automatic animation handling
- targeting older iOS versions with a lightweight Objective-C category

## When to avoid
- starting a new Swift project where modern alternatives are better maintained
- you only need basic keyboard notifications available via NSNotification
- you need SwiftUI-native keyboard handling

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, animation, state-management
- domain: mobile-development, developer-tools
- platform: c
- tags: objective-c, keyboard, uikit, pan-to-dismiss, category, ios, mobile
