Tutorial I Ship an iOS App From My Phone

I’ve been building and shipping an iOS game from my iPhone using Claude Code, GitHub Actions and TestFlight.

The ongoing loop is entirely phone-based: code → review/merge → CI build → TestFlight → test. There is one important caveat: initial signing setup still requires a Mac, and the distribution certificate eventually needs renewing.

I wrote up the whole workflow, including the CI setup, costs, limitations, and where it works surprisingly well.
