5. To level up the dif cultly 5
6. Motivation to Self The most powerful tool we have as developers today is automation. Hence, Automation -> Reduces Process Redundancy -> Profit 6
7. Goals Developer-less Deployment Git backed deployment history 7
8. Why not Apple's CLI tools? Hard to learn (For those who dont nd the CLI intuitive) Hard to use (Verbose commands with long chained parameters. Tough to get things done.) Hard to maintain the commands (Apple's CLI commands are not known for friendliness. Error reporting is not great either. Error 65) 8
9. #NotAPerceptionProblem Build xcodebuild -project Example.xcodeproj \ -scheme ExampleScheme \ -configuration QA \ CONFIGURATION_BUILD_DIR="$CWD/build" clean build Similarly, Code signing certificates Provisioning profiles Screenshots Push notification certificates IPA Packaging Submitting to the store 9
