^{MetalDeferredLighting}	^{Graphics & Animation} ^{(3D Drawing)}	^Metal	^{MetalDeferredLighting is designed as an example of rendering of a g-buffer and light accumulation in a single render encoder in one pass using programmable blending. In this sample, we render in 2 passes. As such it is also an example of a multipass renderer in Metal. A "pass" in this case is defined as all draws to a texture before swapping it out for a new texture. The first pass renders a shadow map based on the calculated position of a sun. The second pass performs a deferred lighting algorithm by writing to and reading from a framebuffer containing 4 color attachments. Three of the attachments are seeded with the g-buffer values (albedo, linear depth, normal). Next, light primitives are rendered to accumulate light into the light accumulation attachment, reading the g-buffer values directly from the other attachments. A full screen quad combines the light accumulation buffer with the albedo texture, samples the shadow map as a texture, and applies the light contribution from the sun. The results of this composition pass overwrites the albedo attachment with the final composited output. Lastly, particles representing each point light (lovingly called fairies) are rendered on top. What began as the albedo texture in the g-buffer now contains the final value, which can be presented to the display as its texture is the CAMetalLayer's drawable texture.}

^UnwindSegue	^{User Experience}	^UIKit	^{This sample demonstrates how to use segues and unwind segues to drive navigation between the various screens of content in your app. The project contains two build targets: UnwindSegue and CustomUnwindSegue. UnwindSegue demonstrates using unwind segues with modally presented view controllers as well as view controllers in a UINavigationController. CustomUnwindSegue demonstrates implementing a custom container view controller that can be used with unwind segues.}
^URLCache	^Performance		^{URLCache is a sample iPhone application that demonstrates how to download a resource off the web, store it in the application's data directory, and use the local copy of the resource. URLCache also demonstrates how to implement a couple of caching policies:}
^{Using a Search Bar in a Toolbar}	^{User Experience} ^(Controls)	^UIKit	^{"ToolbarSearch" shows how to use a search bar in a toolbar and present recent searches in a popover.}
^{Using AirPrint to Print a Banner}	^General		^{PrintBanner shows how to print a banner of arbitrary length to a roll printer. The code formats the job for landscape orientation and then calculates a font size that fills the width of the paper. It then determines the length of the text and pads the length so the final cut length results in a pleasing layout.}
^{Using an AUGraph with the Multi-Channel Mixer and Remote I/O Audio Unit}	^{Audio & Video} ^(Audio)	^CoreAudio	^{Demonstrates how to build an Audio Unit Graph connecting a Multichannel Mixer instance to the RemoteIO unit. Two input busses are created each with input volume controls. An overall mixer output volume control is also provided and each bus may be enabled or disabled.}
^{Using AVAudioEngine for Playback, Mixing and Recording}	^{Audio & Video} ^(Audio)	^AVFoundation	^{Demonstrates using AVAudioEngine with two AVAudioPlayerNodes and AVAudioPCMBuffer objects along with an AVAudioUnitDelay and AVAudioUnitReverb to playback two loops which can then be mixed, processed and recorded.}
^{Using AVFoundation APIs to record a movie with location metadata}		^AVFoundation	^{This sample shows how to use AVAssetWriterInputMetadataAdaptor API to write timed location metadata, obtained from CoreLocation, during live video capture. The captured movie file has video, audio and metadata track. The metadata track contains location corresponding to where the video was recorded.}
^{Using External Displays}	^{User Experience} ^{(Windows & Views)}	^UIKit	^{How to detect the presence of an external display, determine the available display resolutions, select a resolution, and show content on the display.}
^{Using UIImagePickerController to Select Pictures and Take Photos}	^{User Experience}	^UIKit	^{PhotoPicker demonstrates how to choose images from the photo library, take a picture with the device's camera, and how to customize the look of the camera's user interface. This is done by using UIImagePickerController. The chosen image or camera photo is displayed in a UIImageView. To customize the camera's interface, this sample shows how to use an overlay view. With this overlay view it gives you the ability to customize the UI as you take a picture.}
^VideoSnake	^{Audio & Video}	^AVFoundation	^{VideoSnake demonstrates temporal synchronization of video with motion data.}
^{ViewControllerPreviews: Using the UIViewController previewing APIs}	^{User Experience}	^UIKit	^{This sample displays both a static and dynamic UITableViewController triggering view controller previews, using preferredContentSize to show previews of different sizes. The sample also includes single-item and grouped action items.}
^{ViewTransitions}	^{Graphics & Animation} ^(Animation)	^UIKit	^{Demonstrates how to perform transitions between two views using UIView's transitionFromView and animateWithDuration API.}
^{WatchKit Catalog: Using WatchKit Interface Elements}	^General	^WatchKit	^{This sample demonstrates how to use UI elements available in the WatchKit framework. Refer to this sample to see how to use, configure, and interact with each UI element. This project also shows you how to use new capabilities in WatchKit for watchOS 2.0 including media support, the Digital Crown, and ClockKit.}
^WiTap	^{Networking & Internet} ^{(Services & Discovery)}	^Foundation	^{The WiTap sample demonstrates peer-to-peer networking over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Using Bonjour, the application both advertises itself on the local network and displays a list of other instances on the network. Supports infrastructure networks, peer-to-peer Bluetooth, and peer-to-peer Wi-Fi (on compatible hardware).}
^{XMLPerformance}	^Performance	^Foundation	^{This sample explores two approaches to parsing XML, focusing on performance with respect to speed, memory footprint, and user experience. The XML data used is the current "Top 300" songs from the iTunes store. The data itself is not particularly important to the sample - it was chosen because of its simplicity, availability, and because the size (approximately 850KB) is sufficient to demonstrate the performance issues central to the sample.}
^{ZoomingPDFViewer}	^{Graphics & Animation} ^{(2D Drawing)}	^CoreGraphics	^{Multi-paged PDF viewing with UIPageViewController demonstrates two-page spline viewing in landscape orientation, which looks like a book within iBooks. The sample also uses UIScrollView and CATiledLayer to support zooming within a single-page view used in portrait orientations. This app is universal and only supports the two-page spline view in landscape orientation on iPad.}
