Page View Controllers

Like navigation controllers, tab view controllers, and split view controllers, page view controllers are containers for other view controllers. They manage pages of content using either a book-like page curling presentation or a scrolling style. When using the page curling style, you set the book’s “spine,” typically along the left or top of the view. Build your “book” by adding individual content view controllers. Each “page” transitions to the next using page curls or pans.
