If you use PaintCode, you get CoreGraphics c code output. If you deliver your designs to a developer in CG code, their jaw will drop.

Note this can be slower to render than a bitmap equivalent. I tend to avoid drawing code unless it's a dynamic animation, such as a waveform.

what's the point, exactly, to doing this (serious question)

[taybenlor]

Things like:

  * Scalability - you can resize a button and get the correct look
  * Simplicity - you don't need to create 1x and 2x resources

Downsides are that it can be slow and it muddies up your code base.
