## What it is
An Objective-C iOS library that mimics the slide-out sidebar (hamburger menu) layout popularized by the Facebook and Path 2.0 apps. It integrates with UINavigationController via a delegate pattern and is explicitly discontinued as of June 2014.

## Use cases
- add a facebook-style slide-out sidebar to an ios app
- implement a hamburger menu navigation in objective-c
- reveal left and right sidebars from a navigation controller
- mimic the Path 2.0 sidebar layout on ios
- build a reveal sidebar with ARC and non-ARC support

## When to choose
- maintaining a legacy Objective-C iOS app already using this pattern
- studying how reveal sidebar layouts were implemented historically

## When to avoid
- starting any new iOS project - it is discontinued and Apple discourages the hamburger menu pattern
- you need Swift or modern iOS support
- you want an actively maintained sidebar library - consider alternatives like ViewDeck or modern SwiftUI approaches
