Chapter 8
Uploading to the App Store

We’ve come a long way together. We started with nothing, and now we’re well on our way to making beautiful production-ready iOS apps. That wasn’t so hard, right? At this point, you could go off and continue your iOS adventure, but at the end of the day, there’s still one more skill we need to cover: uploading our apps to Apple’s App Store.

To get your product on the App Store, you’ll need to be a paying member of the iOS Developer Program (https://developer.apple.com/programs/ios/). So far, we’ve just built our apps for the iOS simulator and everything worked out, but now we need real developer certificates to sign our apps. You should follow the instructions on Apple’s website; when you’re done setting up your account, we’re ready to move on.
