In your viewDidLoad() Try:

viewDidLoad() {
ibCollectionView.dataSource = self
ibCollectionView.delegate = self

You must use these functions in your ViewController class:

func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {}

func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {}
