6,458 PointsYeah, don't go with the new Empty application template. Just select Single-View Application, then delete the generated storyboard and view controller files. If you want to manage without a storyboard altogether, you need to remove it from the General Settings where it says Main Interface. To set which view controller is your root view controller (where the app starts out), follow the points listed here: https://teamtreehouse.com/forum/removing-storyboard-from-xcode-61.

5,073 PointsThere is a major difference between an Empty Application and an Empty Project. An Empty Project has no targets. This article is very helpful if you want to restore Empty Application: https://coderwall.com/p/wucjeq/add-empty-application-template-back

1) Download the Empty Application template from
https://www.dropbox.com/s/jd560t6u5sab4ae/Empty%20Application.xctemplate.zip?dl=0
(Link taken from the coderwall.com reference posted by @colinli.)
2) Navigate to the correct file location in Xcode: Finder > Applications > Right-Click on Xcode > Show Package Contents > Contents > Developer > Library > Xcode > Templates > Base > Other
3) Drag and drop the downloaded template into this location.

William Li
Courses Plus Student 26,868 PointsNone that I'm aware of; I guess Apple renamed it to Empty in newer version of Xcode.

Courses Plus Student 26,868 Pointsdo you know the basics of iOS development and its programming language? If not, I'd suggest you take Treehouse's iOS track.
