What is nib2objc FOR MAC?

nib2objc

nib2objc is a cool set of free and open-source tools that lets you convert NIB files (or XIB files) into Objective-C code. What's awesome is that it captures all the properties of each instance, the documented constructor calls, and even the view hierarchy. So if you're working with these file types, this tool can really save you time!
