Hero is a library for building iOS view controller transitions. It provides a layer on top of the UIKit's cumbersome transition APIs. Making custom transitions an easy task for developers.
At its core, Hero is similar to Keynote's Magic Move. It checks the heroID property on all source and destinations views. Every matched view pairs are then automatically transitioned from it's old state to it's new state.
Hero can also construct animations for unmatched views. It is easy to define these animations via the heroModifiers property. Hero will run these animations alongside the Magic Move animations. All of these can be interactive, too.
