I’ve mentioned a number of resources on utilizing the excellent UICollectionView class including a great tutorial explaining the basics of creating a UICollectionView layout in a step-by-step manner.
Here’s a UICollectionViewLayout designed specifically for displaying calendar data in a similar style to that in the Calendar app adjusting for the iPhone and iPad display screens.
Also included is an example app that pulls Denver sporting events calendar from the web, and uses the custom UICollectionView layout to display those dates.
Here are a couple of images from the readme showing the example app in action:
You can find MSCollectionViewCalendarLayout on Github here.
