You can use a storyboard for any part of a program. Storyboards are not an all or nothing concept. You can have just one view controller in a storyboard, or a small network that just represents a subsection of your app.

To use just one view controller from a storyboard:

1. Add a new storyboard to your existing project.
2. Add a single view controller to the storyboard.
3. Assign an identifier to the view controller in the inspector.
4. Use the UIStoryboard class to load the storyboard resource
5. Use -[UIStoryboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:] to create a new instance of that view controller.
6. Install the view controller some place in your app by doing something like pushing it on to a navigation controller, or run it modally.
