programmable Auto Layout ?

hi,

I am a beginner, i just watch the lecture about introduction to auto layout in Treehouse, it is conducted in Swift 2. I often watch tutorial on Youtube about auto layout, but on youtube it's explained by using stack view, constraint etc in main story board , but in this course pasan explained using some mathematical equation about auto layout

my question is, is it only for swift 2 ? since i used swift 3 (xcode 8.3) at the moment. do i have to follow auto layout programatically ? just feel so daunting

You don't have to do programmatic AutoLayout if you don't want to. In fact, the majority of Treehouse's videos use storyboards and AutoLayout in Interface Builder. That being said, it's good to know how to do things programmatically, so Treehouse teaches that, too. There are lots of libraries out there like PureLayout that makes programmatic AutoLayout easier
