How to create a view controller file after creating a new view controller? (xcode 8.21)

I'm trying to develop a tabbed activity app in xcode 8.21, and it only starts you out with two tabs. I want to make a third tab. I followed an online tutorial by adding another view controller and linking it to the tab bar controller. However, it doesn't automatically create a ViewController.swift file. All the tutorials are out of date (already), so I tried manually creating a .swift file called ThirdViewController.swift. Then, in the custom class section of the view controller, I tried typing ThirdViewController but it didn't work. Please help, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Every tutorial I've seen online is already outdated.

You chose the wrong path to generate your file. In Xcode select "Cocoa Touch Class" instead of "Swift File" you can then decide if you want a Swift or Objective-C file with a specific Class (UIViewController in this case) Xcode dialog new File
