## What it is
IBAnimatable is a Swift library that extends UIKit so developers and designers can design customized UI, animations, transitions, and gestures directly in Xcode's Interface Builder with little or no code. It supports previewing corner radius, gradients, transitions, and activity indicators in storyboards for App Store-ready iOS apps.

## Use cases
- design ios ui in interface builder without code
- add transitions and animations to ios app in storyboard
- prototype ios animations in swift playground
- customize uikit views with corner radius gradients and shadows visually
- create interactive gesture-driven navigation transitions on ios

## When to choose
- you build UIKit-based iOS apps and want visual design and animation in Interface Builder
- designers and developers want to prototype UI without writing animation code

## When to avoid
- you use SwiftUI instead of UIKit and Interface Builder
- you need a library with frequent updates and active maintenance
