I've decided to try my hand at using native navigation and lists etc with custom JUCE components within certain views. &nbsp;Main reason being&nbsp;I've been struggling to get smooth feel and performance using pure JUCE on both Android and iOS.&nbsp;I've looked into how to do this for Android and now I'm learning some Objective-C and hoping to do the same on iOS.&nbsp;

My question is around how best to set up the project &nbsp;- I've found some relevant posts (linked below) but not sure the best route of action. I already have a project and would like, if possible, to still have one project for multiple platform targets.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Any tips or advice on this subject?&nbsp;

I have a more specific question: what does a MainWindow class look lke that launches a UIView (with xib file) instead of the usual&nbsp;MainComponent? I guess this requires a Main.mm file?&nbsp;

Any pointers/examples much appreciated.&nbsp;
