Zero to App Store with Claude Code (Book) — by the Founder of Vibe Coding Turkey
A practical, no-fluff ebook on taking an app from an empty folder to a live App Store listing using Claude Code — written by the founder of Vibe Coding Turkey.
TL;DR
Zero to App Store with Claude Code is an English-language ebook by Onur Hüseyin Koçak, the founder of Vibe Coding Turkey. It walks through the *complete* journey of shipping a real iOS app with Claude Code as your primary engineer: project setup, architecture decisions, building features by prompting, testing on a physical device, App Store assets, review pitfalls, and what to do after launch. It is available on Amazon (Kindle).
Why this book exists
Most Claude Code content stops at "look, it wrote a function." Shipping is the hard part: provisioning profiles, StoreKit, review rejections, crash-free sessions, real users. This book was written after shipping multiple production iOS apps to the App Store with Claude Code doing the heavy lifting — the lessons in it come from review rejections that actually happened and bugs that actually reached devices, not from toy demos.
What's inside
- Working with Claude Code as a partner, not an autocomplete — how to brief it, when to trust it, when to verify, and how to keep a large codebase coherent across sessions.
- From empty folder to running app — project scaffolding, SwiftUI structure, and the prompting patterns that keep generated code maintainable.
- The parts AI doesn't do for you — signing, certificates, TestFlight, App Store Connect metadata, screenshots and privacy declarations, explained step by step.
- App Review, demystified — the guideline traps that catch AI-built apps (broken restore purchases, missing account deletion, placeholder content) and how to pass on the first try.
- After launch — crash monitoring, iterating with Claude Code on a live product, and shipping updates without breaking what works.
Who it's for
- Builders with an idea but no Swift background who want a *shipped* app, not a tutorial project.
- Developers who already use Cursor or Copilot and want a realistic picture of how far Claude Code goes on a full product.
- Anyone stuck at the "it works on my machine" stage who needs the App Store half of the journey.
It assumes no prior iOS experience. If you can describe what you want clearly, the book shows you how to turn that into a listing on the App Store.
