Where to put .xib file inside framework project?

Question

I lost half a day figuring this and I can\'t see a straight forward solution online.

I created an iOS CocoaTouch Framework. I have some private and public classes in it

Answer 1

Generic solution for controllers with .xib file

public extension UIViewController {

    //** loads instance from right framework bundle, not main bundle as UIViewController.init() does
    private static func genericInstance() -> T {
        return T.init(nibName: String(describing: self), bundle: Bundle(for: self))
    }

    public static func instance() -> Self {
        return genericInstance()
    }
}

Use as

YourViewController.instance()
