External tools/utilities may be required

Install authorize-ios
npm install -g authorize-ios

Install libimobiledevice
brew install libimobiledevice

Install ideviceinstaller / ios-deploy

To deploy our apps to our devices. We can install and debug apps from the command line without using Xcode
sudo xcode-select -r
brew install ideviceinstaller

ideviceinstaller doesn't work with iOS 10 yet. So we need to install ios-deploy
npm install -g ios-deploy

Install  ios_webkit_debug_proxy
brew install ios-webkit-debug-proxy
