ios-marketing-capture

Automating marketing screenshots for iOS apps uses a DEBUG-only in-app capture system that seeds deterministic demo data, navigates SwiftUI screens, and renders full-screen PNGs for every locale and device. It outputs assets into a predictable marketing/<locale>/ folder structure.

Capturing isolated UI elements like widgets and charts as PNGs in SwiftUI is handled by rendering specific components separately during the automated capture flow. This produces isolated element renders saved directly into an elements subfolder for component assets.

The automated screenshot capture system is designed exclusively for SwiftUI iOS apps. It leverages SwiftUI's rendering capabilities to navigate screens and generate both full-screen marketing screenshots and isolated element captures.

Extracting generated marketing screenshots from the iOS app sandbox is executed by an end-to-end shell script. This script builds, installs, and runs the capture flow, then extracts the rendered PNG assets from the app sandbox to your local machine.

Standard screenshot automation often requires manual device configuration, but this approach provides a step-based coordinator that navigates screens and snapshots outputs automatically. It seeds deterministic demo data to ensure consistent, locale-aware assets without manual intervention.

Manual marketing screenshot captures are inconsistent across locales due to human error and varying data states. Automating the process with deterministic demo data seeding and a step-based coordinator ensures consistent, error-free, locale-aware assets every time.
