Description

There is a section regarding how to do Subclassing, it appears to have missing code example.
https://docs.parseplatform.org/ios/guide/#subclasses

PFObject supports dynamic synthesizers just like NSManagedObject. Declare a property as you normally would, but use @dynamic rather than @synthesize in your .m file. The following example creates a displayName property in the Armor class:

And then.. there is no code block.
Also, it wouldn't hurt extending a little bit more on how to do Subclassing properly, Stackoverflow if filled with lot's of different implementations and hacks.

Thanks you for maintaining the project. 👏

Research direction

Start at the Subclasses section of the linked iOS Guide page and inspect the text around the sentence introducing the Armor displayName property. Restore the missing Objective-C example and expand the subsection with accurate subclassing guidance; the work is done when the example renders and the section clearly explains the supported approach.
