Accessing storyboard from custom framework not working

Question

Hi I have to access storyboard from custom framework (LoginUIModule, LoginUIModule have storyboard LoginScreen.storyboard) in app delegate.
I removed Main storyboard from Main Interface and also removed name from Main storyboard file base name as well from .plist, but I getting an error
reason: 'Could not find a storyboard named 'LoginScreen' in bundle NSBundle
Note:- LoginUIModule is separate Module and I need to access it in my main (OneAppllbs) project which is a again separate module
The Code which I used in app delegate
import LoginUIModule

self.window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
    let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "LoginScreen", bundle: nil)
    let initialViewController = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "LoginUIModuleViewController") as? LoginUIModuleViewController
    self.window?.rootViewController = initialViewController
    self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()

Get storyboard from a framework
Set Storyboard ID for .storyboard. For example frameworkStoryboardId
[Access to Framework bundle]
let frameworkStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "SomeViewController", bundle: frameworkBundle)

let frameworkViewController = frameworkStoryboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "frameworkStoryboardId") as? SomeViewController

You need set Bundle to access Storyboard.
First create storyboardBundle with Bundle Identifier for framework;
let storyboardName = "LoginScreen"
let storyboardBundle = Bundle(for: LoginUIModuleViewController.self)

or referencing a class in framework:
let storyboardBundle = Bundle(identifier: "com.yourframework.id")

Then create storyboard with this bundle:
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: storyboardName, bundle: storyboardBundle)
