nib files do not contain any magic. Every bit of information that you need
to programmatically create GUIs is in the available documentation.

You will need an instance of NSApplication. See the documentation for how to
write a main() function that creates a top level autorelease pool and an
NSApplication instance.
You will want at least one NSWindow instance.
You will want to add menu items to the main menu (available via -mainMenu in
NSApplication)
You add views to your window's content view using NSView's -addSubview: and
NSWindow's -contentView methods.

Almost everything you will want is a view.
