July 21, 2019/
This tutorial walks you through creating a custom keyboard using a storyboard, rather than with pure code for the layout.

On custom keyboards, if we want to support localization (all languages), do we have to add all characters as a button on the keyboard? Or is there a different way for doing this? Cant we use native keyboard's character buttons as a native View and customize other things?
Hi, i would like to create a keyboard with special caracters. How to add a new button ( a new caracter like "6") that does not exist in apple standard keyboard?
How do you add texture to the keyboard? im sure there must be a function where animation is added to the buttons with the texture like original apple keyboard, or do i need to remake that?
Hi. Thank you for a nice tutorial. Could you create tutorial how link your own keyboard to another real application (for example: 2 text view with different keyboards, one of each is your own custom keyboard.
i followed step by step of the video and when i try switching to my keyboard it quickly blinks and skips to the next keyboard anything to do to fix that

Why you didn't make a better keyboard instead of just "hello world".

You should lower your display resolution when recording videos. Apart from that great tutorial.

My progress matches yours up to the removal of the code in viewDidLoad() regarding the stock nextKeyboardButton that you say to do.
If I remove all that code as you do I get a blank view that flashes into view for a second then the normal keyboard appears.
If I put the code back the custom keyboard appears but with the stock next keyboard button?
Any ideas?
