Why should I create custom script step:

While Bitrise provides hundreds of pre-made workflow steps for the most frequent use cases, we can't cover every possible scenario, so customer scripts may be required from time to time. Bitrise offers the Script Step (the default is Bash), which enables you to write code in the programming language of your choice to complete the task.
