Hello. Like the title says i am trying to creating a TextView. It is supposed to be in a UIView which already contains another UIView which poses as a fake top border. The border is where it is supposed to be, but the TextView won't show. Does anybody what i am doing wrong? Here is the code:

Code Block swift  let jobView = UIView.init(frame:CGRect.zero)
     let topBorder = UIView.init(frame:CGRect.zero)
     let jobTitleText = UITextView.init(frame:CGRect.zero)
     jobView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
     topBorder.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
     jobTitleText.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
     jobTitleText.text = job.title
     jobTitleText.textColor = UIColor.black
     jobTitleText.font = UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 20)
     jobView.addSubview(topBorder)
     jobView.addSubview(jobTitleText)
     NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
     topBorder.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: jobView.topAnchor),
     topBorder.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: jobView.centerXAnchor),
     topBorder.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 15.0),
     topBorder.widthAnchor.constraint(equalTo: jobView.widthAnchor)
                        ])
                        
     NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
     jobTitleText.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: topBorder.bottomAnchor, constant: +5.0),
     jobTitleText.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant:25.0),
     jobTitleText.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: jobView.leadingAnchor, constant: +5),
