The primary delegate methods of UICollectionView are not explicitly mentioned in the provided context. However, I can provide some general information about common delegate methods used in UICollectionView:

  1. collectionView(_:cellForItemAt:): Asks the data source for the cell that corresponds to the specified item in the collection view.
  2. collectionView(_:numberOfItemsInSection:): Asks the data source for the number of items in the specified section.
  3. collectionView(_:didSelectItemAt:): Tells the delegate that the item at the specified index path was selected.
  4. collectionView(_:layout:sizeForItemAt:): Asks the delegate for the size of the specified item’s cell.
  5. collectionView(_:viewForSupplementaryElementOfKind:at:): Asks the data source for the view that corresponds to the specified supplementary element.

For more detailed and specific information, you might want to refer to the official Apple documentation or the session titled What’s new in UIKit which discusses updates to collection and table view APIs.
