[MonoTouch] Some basic example apps that don't use Interface uilder.

[Chris Branson]

You don't have to have any .xib files in an MT project at all. You can instantiate a windows object yourself in the AppDelegate FinishedLaunching and then hang your view controllers & views off of that.

Quick example: https://gist.github.com/1261104 (create a new "Empty MonoTouch Project" and add this main.cs)

Having said that, particularly with Universal apps, I usually make use of the default xib that gets created when you start a new solution and then build out from there using code only and MonoTouch.Dialog.

Cheers,

Chris
