    For the hackathon, it will be sufficient to use Xcode for this. While it would be great to get a CLI for this (thus, making it something we can tool easily), it's not absolutely required for the hackathon.

    It looks like this is possible from teh command line:

    As soon as we have a flutter ipa command we can run it on the bots for every build. We'll probably want to sign them with a bot-specific key, not sure.

    flutter build ios --release exists and works now.

    I suspect build ios --release actually produces an app (uncompressed, installed on phone) not an ipa (compressed, plus store artwork, sent to store). So yes, I think we should close this, but we'll need to open separate issues about how-to-publish-a-flutter app on iOS.

    Please suggest some solution.
