DevOps for Swift (iOS/macOS) Developers
DevOps for Swift (iOS/macOS) Developers
Summary:
The book "DevOps for Swift (iOS/macOS) Developers" is a practical guide that will help you master the principles and tools of DevOps in the context of Swift development. If you want to speed up the development cycle, improve code quality, and automate routine processes, this book is for you.
Unlike traditional DevOps books that focus on web or server technologies, this edition focuses specifically on the Apple ecosystem. You will learn how to set up continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) for Swift projects using Xcode, Fastlane, GitHub Actions, Bitrise, and other popular tools.
The book is suitable both for novice developers who are just getting acquainted with automation processes and for experienced engineers looking to optimize their workflows. You will get ready-made recipes and configuration templates that can be immediately applied to your projects.
What you will learn from the book:
- DevOps basics: containerization, orchestration, and configuration management for Swift projects.
- Setting up CI/CD pipelines for iOS and macOS applications from scratch.
- Working with Docker to create reproducible build and test environments.
- Automating builds, testing (Unit, UI), and deployment to App Store Connect.
- Integration with popular services: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Bitrise, Jenkins.
- Dependency management and versioning (CocoaPods, Swift Package Manager).
- Application monitoring and logging after deployment.
- Security: working with certificates, profiles, and secrets in CI.
- Optimizing build time and reducing artifact size.
The book is written in simple language, with plenty of code examples and screenshots. All examples can be downloaded and tested on your computer. You will learn not only how to configure tools but also understand why you should choose one approach over another.
Who this book is for:
- iOS and macOS developers who want to automate builds and deployment.
- DevOps engineers transitioning to the Apple ecosystem.
- Team leads and tech leads responsible for quality and delivery speed.
- Students and junior developers looking to learn modern practices.
After reading this book, you will be able to independently set up a complete DevOps cycle for a Swift application: from commit to publication in the app store. You will save hours of manual work and make the development process predictable and reliable.
Add this book to your library to become a more efficient developer and take your projects to a new level of automation!
