class ViewController: UIViewController {

var keyboardHideManager: KeyboardHideManager?

override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()

// Initialize Keyboard Hide Manager

Managing Keyboard Visibility

You can manage keyboard visibility using the `keyboardHideManager` instance created above. The following methods are available:

1. hideKeyboard()

   Hides the keyboard if it is currently visible.

   
       keyboardHideManager?.hideKeyboard()
       

2. dismissKeyboard(on view: UIView)

   Dismisses the keyboard by resigning the `firstResponder` status on the specified view.

   
       keyboardHideManager?.dismissKeyboard(on: view)
       

Subscribing to Keyboard Events

You can subscribe to keyboard events using the `keyboardHideManager` instance. The following delegate methods are available:

1. keyboardWillShow()

   Called when the keyboard is about to be displayed.

   
       func keyboardWillShow() {
           // Perform actions when keyboard will show
       }
       

2. keyboardDidShow()

   Called when the keyboard has been displayed.

   
       func keyboardDidShow() {
           // Perform actions when keyboard did show
       }
       

3. keyboardWillHide()

   Called when the keyboard is about to be hidden.

   
       func keyboardWillHide() {
           // Perform actions when keyboard will hide
       }
       

4. keyboardDidHide()

   Called when the keyboard has been hidden.

   
       func keyboardDidHide() {
           // Perform actions when keyboard did hide
       }

// Add gesture recognizer to dismiss keyboard when tapping outside
let tapGesture = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(dismissKeyboard))
view.addGestureRecognizer(tapGesture)
}

@objc func dismissKeyboard() {
keyboardHideManager?.hideKeyboard()
