I was trying to have a secondary collection view with circle images above (y axis) the functioning collection view but its crashing and throwing this error
Error code:
could not dequeue a view of kind: UICollectionElementKindCell with identifier CircleCollectionViewCell - must register a nib or a class for the identifier or connect a prototype cell in a storyboard
