Instantiate and Present a viewController in Swift

by

This answer was last revised for Swift 5.4 and iOS 14.5 SDK.

It’s all a matter of new syntax and slightly revised APIs. The underlying functionality of UIKit hasn’t changed. This is true for a vast majority of iOS SDK frameworks.

let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "myStoryboardName", bundle: nil)
let vc = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "myVCID")
self.present(vc, animated: true)

Make sure to set myVCID inside the storyboard, under “Storyboard ID.”
