To learn about the latest updates in Interface Builder, you can refer to the "Platforms State of the Union" session from WWDC 2024. This session highlights improvements in Xcode Previews, which are closely related to Interface Builder. The new dynamic linking architecture in Xcode Previews allows for a smoother workflow by using the same build artifacts for previews and when you build and run, avoiding the need to rebuild your project when switching between the two. This enhancement makes the development process more efficient and productive.
