About

Vibemaster

Features

Vibemaster turns your idea into a ready-to-ship Apple app — no Mac required. Just Claude. You can do it from you iPhone! You can tell Claude to make changes to the app. It will make the changes, PR to GitHub, compile, and ship to TestFlight for you to test within moments. Actually! Answer a short, guided set of questions about your app, your GitHub, and your Apple account, and Vibemaster builds a complete handoff: your app's brief, a full cloud build-and-ship pipeline (GitHub Actions + Fastlane + XcodeGen), and clear playbooks. Paste it into a Claude chat and Claude builds your SwiftUI app, compile-checks it, ships it to TestFlight, and drives App Store Connect for you. • Guided setup — credentials, identifiers, pricing, and your app description, one clear step at a time. • No Mac needed — everything compiles and ships in the cloud. • Multi-platform — target iOS, macOS, tvOS, and visionOS from one codebase. • Your keys stay yours — secrets become write-only GitHub Actions secrets, never pasted into chat. Vibemaster is the launchpad; Claude is the engineer. Bring an idea, leave with an app on its way to the App Store.
