Bootstrapping iOS App

Followed for ViewController -> Embed In -> Navigation Controller, and Basic Styling https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbAd2FIlnos

Segue's

1. CMD+Click EmpowerPlantViewController icon (1st of 3) on Storyboard, drag to next ViewController
2. Click the new segueu line arrow -> Storyboard Segue options -> Identifier, set as goToCart

Storyboard > ViewController > Navigation Item > BackButton renaming does not work

Dragged 'Checkout' button to bottom but it displays in middle in the virtual device, maybe because added constraints for Horizontal/Vertical Orientation.

pod init created Podfile but not Pods folder in XCode, like /cocoa demo has. pod install

 ~/thinkocapo/EmpowerPlant   master ±   pod install

[!] Please close any current Xcode sessions and use `EmpowerPlant.xcworkspace` for this project from now on.
Pod installation complete! There is 1 dependency from the Podfile and 1 total pod installed.

[!] Your project does not explicitly specify the CocoaPods master specs repo. Since CDN is now used as the default, you may safely remove it from your repos directory via `pod repo remove master`. To suppress this warning please add `warn_for_unused_master_specs_repo => false` to your Podfile.

Problem - 'xcode not creating pods directory' "Closing current project then re-open with new .xcworskpace will solve the issue." "You should open .xcworkspace, not .xcodeproj." XCode > File > Open > select the project's .xcoworkspace file, not the entire project directory https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32906165/xcode-not-detecting-pods-directory https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47343066/pod-files-not-showing-up-on-xcode

Creating release and uploading app

• Create debug and release builds + locate them on your disk + zip up accordingly (EmpowerPlant_debug.zip + EmpowerPlant_release.zip)
• Create release manually using UI (https://github.com/sentry-demos/ios/releases/new)
  • Increment version accordingly (release-title)
  • Upload EmpowerPlant_debug.zip + EmpowerPlant_release.zip

See https://github.com/sentry-demos/ios/releases/tag/0.0.1 for a sample release

Note: TDA must be restarted for it to pick up new version
