Earlier quoted context omitted.

I think that is probably a sensible way of doing it - it did seem a bit extreme that Letterpress is pure OpenGL. How much do you rely on QuartzCore/Core Animation rather than regular UIKit animation?

I think in an interview Loren said he wrote it in OpenGL for his own fun. Haven't we all done that? It's extreme, but it's very good at providing a lot of rich control, but with iOS7 a lot of fancy tricks he did will be pretty simple so I'd imagine that it was a one off.
