How it works
Just like with Android, iOS will be supported with as series of actions that will let you build, test, sign, and deploy your applications to App Store Connect from the following SDK development environments:
- Xcode
- React Native
- Cordova
- Fastlane
- Flutter

Builds are run on isolated MAC VM's with pre-installed SDK's. Each action lets you define the commands to run and the version of the environment (at the bottom). Here's how it looks for Xcode SDK:

The next step is signing and exporting the package. Here you can upload the distribution certificate and provisioning profile, and decide if you want to share the app with your team, deliver it to an organization, or release it to the world via the App Store:

And just like that, clean and simple, you've created a delivery pipeline for an iOS application. Cheers to that! 🥂
