 `examples/swiftui-demo` is the sample app the tests' screens come from. `scripts/golden.sh` builds it, runs it on a Simulator and checks 19 golden tasks: build and launch in one call, sign in, toggle, open an item, back and scroll, the app's logs, a crash, a build error and a failing test as `file:line`, a video, and a wrong password that must fail loudly.
