This is incorrect. I think you're being confused by memories of some
Windows programming or the like, where interface creation actually
created code for you that you then fleshed out.

IB does not touch your code. All it creates is a .nib file that tells
the runtime to create some stuff when it's loaded, and then to connect
that stuff to objects that your code created.
