Does anyone know how to have container squares automatically display in one scrollable view?

I was wondering, if you're getting say playlist info from a server, and you didn't know how many playlists there were, does anyone know how you could make your app create a container automatically for every playlist retrieved from the server? So if the server returns 20 playlists, there will be 20 containers to scroll through on the app. And then how do you connect all those containers to their IB action, since you don't know how many containers there will be?

That is covered in the Build a Blog Reader iPhone App course, but it is Obj-C, not Swift. If you want to suggest a course you can tweet Pasan at @pasanpr.

You'd use something called a Collection View.
