--- Comment #1 from Alexey Proskuryakov <ap at webkit.org> ---
Looks like `Tools/Scripts/run-webkit-app <application-path>` example is in the macOS section, so the fact that it works with iOS Simulator is undocumented.

So some of the improvements here are:

- Yes, need to add --debug to the example.

- Potentially document set-webkit-configuration, which is a way to avoid the need to pass --debug or --release all the time.

- Would be good to add that run-webkit-app works with the simulator (I assume that you verified that it actually successfully uses the locally built WebKit, and not the one from simulator runtime).

- Fix `run-webkit-app --help`. I'm not sure from the top of my head what --ios-simulator does as opposed to iPhone and iPad variants.

Would you be willing to post a PR with the improvements?
