Everyone needs a good editor..!!!✂️ Since , has provided us with the provision to add our own customized actions to a U_ITableView’s_ rows using the U_ITableViewDelegate_ method — t_ableView(_:editActionsForRowAt:)._ iOS 8 Apple tableView(_:editActionsForRowAt:) Asks the delegate for the actions to display in response to a swipe in the specified row. Use this method when you want to provide custom actions for one of your table rows. When the user swipes horizontally in a row, the table view moves the row content aside to reveal your actions. Tapping one of the action buttons executes the handler block stored with the action object. Now that is here, we have some new additions 🤓 to the table view’s editing API.
