Beginner often tend to underuse storyboards. Except for fadein/fadeout and views being moved you really never end up coding styles in Obj-c. It's all done graphically using xcode and interface builder. Rounding corners is very often not necessary at all, since you end up using images all the time for buttons and backgrounds.

The stuff I'm working on doesn't use interface builder at all. Nor storyboards. When I start a new project I'll take a look - I was actually advised to ignore the tools and go all code all the time (and lots of images). And it’s worked out - but this is certainly a downside.

ever worked with git and storyboards? quite the disaster once you're more than the sole developer

Exactly. Plus storyboards tend to lock you in, and moving around and constantly iterating to better and better nav schemes kind of goes out the window.
