Chapter 15. Packaging and Distribution

There comes a point where you have done all of the testing you can do. All of the bugs you know about are squashed, the icon has been polished to perfection, the help files written. It's time to share your product with an eager and soon-to-be grateful public.

In this final chapter, you'll be covering that last step. You will take the working application running in Xcode and turn it into the package you need to deliver to your end users. We're going to deal with simple and more advanced tools for doing this. We'll also be looking at iPhone distribution and what you need to get started on the road to getting your iPhone application to market.
