Usage example

1. Create a class that inherits from PepTabBarController

import Pep
final class TabBarController: PepTabBarController {}

2. In this class, initialize view controllers that you want to present in bar.

let homeViewController = HomeViewController()
let favoritesViewController = FavoritesViewController()
let settingsViewController = SettingsViewController()

3. Assign UITabBarItem to view controllers with title, image and selected image properties.

let image = UIImage(named: "x").withRenderingMode(.alwaysOriginal)
let selectedImage = UIImage(named: "y").withRenderingMode(.alwaysOriginal)
homeViewController.tabBarItem = UITabBarItem(title: title, image: image, selectedImage: selectedImage)

4. In viewDidLoad assign these view controllers to self.viewControllers

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    self.viewControllers = [
        homeViewController, favoritesViewController, settingsViewController
    ]
}

5. Voila! You are ready to go. See example project for further customization.
