What role does the AppDelegate play in configuring the Braze SDK?

The AppDelegate plays a crucial role in the lifecycle of an iOS app, particularly during the app's launch phase. When the app starts up, the AppDelegate is responsible for initializing various components, including the Braze SDK. This initialization process sets up the SDK so that it can start handling in-app messaging, user engagement, analytics, and other key functionalities provided by Braze.

By placing the Braze SDK initialization in the AppDelegate, developers ensure that it's ready to track user activities and engage users with personalized content right from the time the app is launched. This is integral to using the SDK effectively, as it allows for seamless integration and functioning of Braze's features throughout the app's lifecycle.

Configurations or user permissions, such as handling notifications, while important, typically take place after the initial setup of the SDK, hence they are secondary to the SDK initialization that occurs during the app launch in the AppDelegate. Similarly, managing app-specific API calls or background processing of notifications, though relevant, does not pertain specifically to the initial configuration phase of the Braze SDK.
