Welcome to the first chapter in Continuous Delivery for Mobile with fastlane, as we begin our exciting journey of making our lives as developers more efficient. Before we begin to dive deeper into all the powerful tools that make up fastlane, we will first talk about what fastlane is, giving you a high-level introduction to the suite of tools that make up this powerful toolset, and explain why you need them.
This chapter will serve a segue into the subsequent chapters of this book, offering a broad understanding of what the fastlane suite of tools consists of before we start setting up our project and fastlane environments.
