SWRevealViewController

Remarks

Using the SWRevealViewController class as the main navigation might not always result in the best user experience. If the sidebar contains only 5 or less entries (or the content can be compressed into 5 or less entries), you should consider using the default tab bar.

The tab bar is intuitive and allows the user to quickly change between views/contexts. On the other hand, the sidebar navigation can perform more actions than switching the view/context and uses less space when collapsed.
