fastlane is a powerful Ruby-powered toolchain that empowers iOS (and Android) developers to automate the process of delivery through what is called continuous delivery. If your passion is for developing workflows that automate the process of building and packaging your apps for distribution, without having to deal with provisioning and other code-signing processes, this book is for you.
This book is primarily targeted at mobile developers (iOS primarily), although we will be touching on some tools that Android developers can take advantage of. This isn't a Swift or Objective-C book, and you will certainly be able to follow with just some basic mobile development skills, although we will be working a lot in the command line as well as Apple's Developer portal and iTunes Connect. Some knowledge of how apps are built, provisioned, signed, and distributed will be helpful, but we will also be introducing a lot of the basic concepts in each of the chapters.Â
